Samtola (Sumtola) - Handcrafted Indian Wooden Barbell | TGIW
Train for Balance, Strength & Power with the Samtola
Experience a true full-body workout with the Samtola — a beautifully handcrafted wooden tool rooted in Indian strength traditions. Designed for mobility, balance, and raw strength, it’s your all-in-one trainer.
The Heritage & Purpose
The Samtola (or Sumtola) originates from North India and has been used in traditional akharas to develop real-world strength and coordination. In Sanskrit, it means “balance” — reflecting its equal weight distribution and core-strengthening purpose. It merges the principles of traditional Mudgar and flow-based movement for upper and lower body training.
Unmatched Craftsmanship
Made from solid hardwood, each Samtola takes two full days to craft. With dual handles and ergonomic balance, it allows 20+ movement variations — swings, lifts, lunges, squats, arms, back and rotational exercises — for strength, endurance, and mobility.
Key Benefits

Strengthen legs, waist, back, and posture

The Mudgar I received was far too superior in quality and finishing!! I got my name engraved. It weighed exactly 5 kg. People at Great Indian Workout are very responsive, committed and deliver value on time everytime!!
I live in USA and frequently visit my family in Mumbai. I have been following the Great Indian Workout for a while on social media and had decided to buy a mobility and full body based workout device from them when I visit India. The Hanuman Gada was the perfect choice for me - not only because of the great benefits it has but also due to my close affinity to Lord Hanumanji and the history of the Gada. I placed and order for the 4-5 kg Gada and waited for its arrival. Upon calling them I got to know that their craftsman was making it from scratch from locally sourced Acacia wood from Nashik. I wanted them to take their time and knew the end product would be amazing. When I received the Gada, it was beautiful and I just couldn't stop admiring it. The packing was great and it was very well protected. The craftsmanship and level of detailing on the Gada was perfect. It was worth the wait and the money. I wish them all the best and look forward to getting some more stuff from them in the future. I highly recommend them to anyone wanting to get into traditional Indian workout.
P.S. the Gada traveled back safe with me to USA. Jai Hanuman.
Correct weight, Nice finish and delivered timely.
Very nice look nicer then the picture I am looking forward to buy more
One of my clubs was damaged during shipping. Without any hesitation, TGIW sent me a replacement club within 10 days. Their clubs are beautiful, reasonably priced, and the team has a high degree of integrity.
The product quality is great.
However the product itself weighs over 6.5kg for a 4-6 kg product. Also a suggestion that the handle is a bit thicker thicker so grabbing it becomes a bit difficult
I bought the gada and sencha and samtola.. The quality of wood and overall feel is very good.
The delivery and packaging was also done very good.
The samtola is perfectly made and of good quality, liked it.
very satisfied with this seller. He took his time to answer my (many) questions, help me choose my mugdar, samtola and gada. I was expecting some beautiful objects, but it was even more beautiful when I received it, and the quality and weight is perfect.
