Collision Course: Kettlebell Training and Beyond

Main Presenters:

John Brookfield: The Battling Ropes System for incredible strength, cardio, and muscular endurance. Looking for a new challenge to ramp up cardio and endurance? Look no further as it does not get better than John’s rope training system.

Jon Hinds: How to maximize your alignment and posture and why you must do so for mobility and well-being. At a training plateau? You will blast through it when you master Jon’s section.

Mike Mahler: Advanced kettlebell training and nutrition strategies for effective fat loss, vitality, and well-being. Want to work up to pressing 88lb kettlebells for reps? What about 97s? How about a great way to do double swings that is much more comfortable and effective than what you have been taught before? Want to snatch a 125lb kettlebell? Apply the two-step snatch technique.

Mark Philippi: How you can benefit from strongman training and how to incorporate it safely and effectively into your training program. You do not need strongman equipment to benefit tremendously from what Mark covered. Once you learn the concepts you can apply it to whatever you want to do and push forward big time.
Guest Presenters:

Tom Furman: How you can have pain free mobility and durability. In addition, what mobility exercises you should be doing before and after every workout.

Dylan Thomas: Effective kettlebell training and conditioning for the martial artist that works just as well for everyday people like you.

Mike Mahler invited me out for this, but I wasn't able to make it, much to my regret. Mike did send me this set as a consolation. Thanks Mike.

This set has a lot of information on it. Despite (or maybe because of) me being a more 'kettlebell sport' guy, there was a lot of things I hadn't seen or thought of before. Each presenter (even Dlyna!) had good points to make and techniques to share. In particular, I enjoyed Jon Hinds presentation. Jon's progressions for the mastery of your own bodyweight in assorted exercises and jumps are fantastic, as I've seen the Monkey Bar Gym DVDs on the same topic before and was very impressed. Tom Furman's segment was very good as well, his applied ideas on mobility and durability training continue to be refined and expanded.

Nice job on this one. This set definitely has an audience in general fitness and training enthusiasts. A nice blend of both exercise demonstrations and progressions and practical advice on effective training.
