Mastering the pistol

I just watched Steve Cotters Mastering the pistol and give it the Thumbs up. He did a real good job on this product. He broke it down to Balance drills, flexibility, warm up and 3 levels of strength training for the pistol. Everything is laid out in a nice easy to follow progression.

Good Job Steve. :supz:

Questions on this:

• In the level 1 workout from this DVD, what weight are those KBs he's squatting with? They look like green competition-style bells, if that helps.

• What kind of band is that he's using for the assisted Pistol?

• Are those "boxes" he's using, the high one in level 1 and the low one in level 2, are those standard heights? Looks like the low one could be approximated by a milk crate.

Thanks

I was really hoping this thread was about firearms. Why do pistols when you can squat with a barbell?

Squatting with a barbell never did much for my sport performance.

Not even Overhead Squats or Front Squats?, full ass to calf depth of coarse.

Of them all, overheads are the best IMHO...gives a lot of stability when fitting in for a throw like fireman's carry. But pistols are excellent for martial arts.

That's why it's called Testicular Fortitude.
