They can range in weight from a few pounds each to special clubs that can weigh as much as up to 100 pounds. They were used in carefully choreographed routines in which the clubs were swung in unison by a group of exercisers, led by an instructor,‌ the way it is still practiced in <a href="/wiki/Varzesh-e_Bastani" class="mw-redirect" title="Varzesh-e Bastani">Varzesh-e Bastani</a> in Iran and similar to 21st-century <a href="/wiki/Aerobics" title="Aerobics">aerobics</a> or <a href="/wiki/Zumba" title="Zumba">zumba</a> classes.
