Description: Sashi Ishi Handle Modern Exercise science is just now relearning what martial arts masters have known for centuries, extending the weight beyond the hand greatly increases the difficulty and benefit of weight training. The sashi ishi is a integral component of traditional Okinawan martial arts. The use of extra weights was called Hojo Undo, or supplementary exercises, and used many unique and effective training tools. Originally, these were made by attaching a handle to a rock. Now, with modern interchangeable weight plates you can have a sashi ishi that will remain a challenge no matter how much you train. This handle accepts Olympic-sized 2" weight plates. Simply slip the plate down the handle until it rests on the attached weight stop on the end. Then use the spring collar to keep it in place. Add as much or as little weight as you want. Sashi ishi like training tools show up in almost every martial arts tradition because they are a great way to build grip core, leg and posterior chain strength. While sashi ishi training is mostly done by Goju Ryu nowadays, it was once common to every karate style. Similar tools are also common to Kung Fu and Indian martial arts. Many of the exercises are similar to heavy kettlebell training. In the box: 1 handle (24") 2 spring collars Weight plates not included. Please contact me if you have any questions. The sashi ishi handle is part of a whole line Hojo Undo equipment I make including chi ishi, nigiri game (gripping jars), makiwara (striking posts), kongoken (weighted oval), and tetsutaba. There are virtually no suppliers of these items so I'm happy to do my part.
