Boys Are Back in Town Kettlebell Workshop DVD - Review
If you’re not aware, Mike Mahler has produced a new 3-DVD set, with over 7-1/2 hours of instruction, featuring Mike Mahler, Steve Maxwell, Steve Cotter, and Nate Morrison. I’ve been wanting to write a review of Boys Are Back in Town Kettlebell Workshop DVD since I got it a few weeks ago, but it’s just taken a while to watch the whole thing. So, you might want to grab a drink and sit back, this could be a long one.
Let me say that at first, I was a little skeptical about the quality of the video. Since it was shot at a kettlebell workshop, I was expecting poor quality video and sound. However, Read more

More Than a Kettlebell Workshop DVD
Mike Mahler has produced a new set of DVDs. It’s over 7 hours worth of training information from some of the most respected instructors in the industry: Mike Mahler, Steve Maxwell, Steve Cotter, and Nate Morrison.
It was filmed during a workshop in Las Vegas, and is MUCH more than a kettlebell training DVD set. It ain’t cheap, but if you’re serious about your training, or are a personal trainer looking to expand your knowledge (and business), I highly recommend you check it out. You can read all about it here: Boys Are Back in Town Kettlebell Workshop DVD.
I didn’t want to write up a formal review until I’d seen it. However, since Mike currently has special pricing on it, I really wanted to tell you guys about it so you can take advantage of the discount.
I did get my copy a couple of weeks ago. I’ve only been able to watch about half of it so far, but it’s excellent - and not the same stuff you’ve heard before. New snatch and clean techniques (straight from Russia) by Steve Cotter to really raise your numbers. A different approach to pressing from Mike Mahler to improve your speed and explosiveness.
Before I ordered, I was concerned about the video and sound quality - since it was shot during a workshop. However, I have no issues at all. The workshop was indoors, and both the video and audio are great. Here’s a teaser video:
I won’t say any more about it here, you can find out for yourself at:

H2H Kettlebells - Strength, Stamina & Coordination
Jeff Martone’s H2H Kettlebells series is basically a course in kettlebell juggling. Designed for explosive speed strength conditioning, the DVDs can play a major role in an effective speed training workout by improving strength and hand-eye coordination.
As expected, the first H2H Kettlebells DVD is made for the beginner, and covers the basics. These drills take your standard kettlebell training to the next level, allowing the bells to leave your hands.
Here’s the link: H2H: Kettlebell Drills
The second DVD is more advanced, and also covers more exercises. This one doesn’t detail the basic body mechanics quite like the first one, as it’s geared more for trainees who are already fairly advanced.
Here’s the link: H2HII: Harder. Faster. Stronger.
The third DVD is H2H:Kettlebell Circuits. Designed for beginners through advanced people, this DVD focuses on Read more

Explosive Speed Strength - Outside the Box
If your sport or job calls for explosive speed strength, then it makes sense to train in a way that would improve your condition in that area. While deadlifts are great for building limit strength, there are better exercises if your task is to maneuver through a defensive line, or wrestle someone to the ground.
While an effective speed training workout will include some sport- or task-specific drills, there are some exercises that will improve your overall explosive strength, and the kettlebell is an excellent tool. However, we won’t stop there.
Kettlebells by design, lend themselves to full-body ballistic drills such as the Read more

Choosing a Kettlebell DVD…
Whether you’re brand-new to kettlebell training, or have been working out with them for a while, it may be time to pick up a kettlebell DVD. Just a few short years ago, it was difficult to find any kettlebell DVDs other than Pavel’s. Fortunately, the popularity of kettlebells has resulted in a surge of DVDs to choose from.
Now, I’ll admit that I haven’t seen most of these DVDs. However, I’m only presenting information from people who I know have the training, experience, and reputation to put together a useful, informative product. I thought I’d make a quick post putting a few in one handy place. Read more

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.
