Russian Kettlebell Challenge

Both the Soviet Special Forces and numerous world-champion Soviet Olympic athletes used the ancient Russian Kettlebell as their secret weapon for xtreme fitness. Thanks to the kettlebells’s astonishing ability to turbocharge physical performance, these Soviet supermen creamed their opponents time-and-time-again, with inhuman displays of raw power and explosive strength.

Now, former Spetznaz trainer, international fitness author and nationally ranked kettlebell lifter, Pavel Tsatsouline, delivers this secret Soviet weapon into your own hands.
You NEVER have to be second best again! Here is the first-ever complete kettlebell training program-for Western shock-attack athletes who refuse to be denied-and who’d rather be dead than number two.

"I have been training with the KB's and DB's for about 2 months or so. To date, I started at a bodyweight of 220. I stepped on the scale 2 days ago and was at 192. A net loss of 28 pounds. In reality, I have lost about 33 pounds of fat, and put on 5 pounds (at least) of muscle. Give it all you have comrade, the weight will fall off."

In Russia, kettlebells have long been revered as the fitness-tool of choice for Olympic athletes, elite special forces and martial artists. The kettlebell's ballistic movement challenges the body to achieve an unparalleled level of physical conditioning and overall strength.

But until now, the astonishing benefits of the Russian kettlebell have been unavailable to all but a few women. Kettlebells have mostly been the sacred preserve of the male professional athlete, the military and other hardcore types. That's about to change, as Russian fitness expert and best selling author PAVEL, delivers the first-ever kettlebell program for women.

Russian Strength Training Secrets for Every American

by Pavel Tsatsouline

• What if we told you: "YOU COULD OWN A WORLD CLASS BODY-whatever your present condition- by doing only two exercises, for twenty minutes a day?"
• And we are talking about a world class body-a body so lean, ripped and powerful looking, you won’t believe your own reflection when you catch yourself in the mirror.
• And we do mean whatever your present condition-we don’t care if you’re currently an abject pipsqueak, a rotund couch potato, or any other sorry-excuse-for-a-human-being.
• And what if we told you, "YOU CAN DO IT without a single supplement, without having to waste your time at a gym and with only a 150 bucks of simple equipment?"

"Power to the People! is absolute  dynamite. If there was only one  book I could recommend to help  you reach your ultimate physical  potential, this would be it."
-Jim Wright, Ph.D., Science  Editor, Flex Magazine, Weider  Group

Be as Flexible as You Want to Be Faster,  Safer and Sooner

Instant Flexibility Through Mastering Muscle Tension
With Pavel Tsatsouline

"Conventional stretching attempts to literally elongate your tissues, which is dangerous and ineffective. Relax into Stretch simply teaches your muscles to relax into a stretch. If you compare traditional training to a messy hardware reorganization, then Relax into Stretch is an efficient software upgrade.

While stretching tissues may take years, changes in the nervous system are immediate! Your muscles will start noticeably elongating from your first Relax into Stretch practice and within months you will have achieved a level of flexibility uncommon to our species."
