New $5.00 Book Store…
I remember when I was a kid and it was time for the Scholastic Book Fair. We’d get these catalogs with dozens of books in them and they were always really inexpensive. I remember buying books for $1.00 – $5.00, and just getting really excited about it. Of course, these were mostly 10-20 page kids’ books, but I just loved it. There’s something fun about feeling like you can pick up five or six things and hardly spend any money.
So, I’m trying to incorporate that idea here. If you look at the top of the site, or under “Pages”, you’ll see a page called “$5.00 Book Store”. I plan on buying the rights to ebooks, reading them to check for quality, and offering them there if they have value. I plan to have books ranging from $3.00 to $10.00, keeping the average around $5.00.
Obviously it takes time to get these books and read them, so they’ll be added slowly. I’m not going to put up any useless junk – only books that I see some value in, and think you guys might like.
UPDATE:
I’ve put this on hold for the time being.

Kettlebells For Speed And Explosive Strength
Here’s another article by guest author, Mike Mahler. As you may know from previous articles by Mike, he puts out some hardcore tough stuff that often calls for two kettlebells. However, the general principles here, as well as most of the drills, can be applied to a single kettlebell as well.
The Kettlebell Solution For Speed And Explosive Strength
By Mike Mahler
We all know that kettlebells are fantastic for building muscular endurance and core strength. Moreover, I showed clearly on my last DVD, “The Kettlebell Solution For Size And Strength”, that kettlebells can be used effectively for getting bigger and stronger. My latest DVD is on how to use kettlebells to get faster and more explosive. Even if you are not an athlete, developing more speed and explosive power will enhance your goals. The more fast switch muscle fibers you can engage the stronger you will be and the more muscular endurance you will be able to tap into. Thus, my DVD will enhance any program that you are on. In this article, I am going to go over a program that is heavily inspired by Louie Simmons and the westside barbell club (www.westside-barbell.com) for increasing speed, strength, and size with kettlebells.

Kettlebells for Conditioning / Endurance…
It’s no secret that kettlebells reign supreme for burning fat, but of course, conditioning is part of that equation too. Regular sets of swings or snatches will build your muscular endurance as well as improve your heart and lung efficiency.
Kettlebell ballistics like the swing and snatch build endurance by default, and there are a few different approaches. One consideration is which would be better? Each has its own pros and cons: Read more
