Thoppai

Thoppai (or “belly club”) is a compact but heavy club style of Mudgar used for core-focused training. With its rounded head and short handle, Thoppai delivers powerful swings and rotational movements that deeply engage abdominal muscles, obliques, and the lower back.

Its unique weight distribution forces your core and stabilisers to work hard, enhancing balance and reducing risk of lower-back strain. Ideal both for home workouts and akhara-style training, Thoppai is especially useful when you want potent strength building in less space.

Crafted from dense hardwood and polished smooth, it blends tradition with functional fitness. Beginners may start light and progress steadily.
