"Comrade, if you liked More
Russian Kettlebell Challenges, you will enjoy Full Body
Kettlebell Power: Beyond the Basics by David Whitley, Senior RKC.
A strong presentation of advanced kettlebell exercises, which seamlessly blends
strength, conditioning and flexibility. The 'Hold My Beer and Watch This'
section alone is worth the price of admission. Dave's truck-like strength and
size blends with a kid-like flexibility that is rare and inspiring." —Pavel Tsatsouline, author of The Russian Kettlebell Challenge
Several years ago, I began training with kettlebells. Very
quickly, it became my passion and my livelihood. I consider
myself fortunate to have gotten in on the ground floor of a
movement that continues to grow each year.
Over the years, I have seen a lot of info out there about how to
perform the basics well, but precious little for anyone who
wants to create advanced strength workouts with kettlebells. I
wanted to develop my truest strength as a tool for
self-expression.
I have specialized in creating and developing these kinds of
programs and variations of exercises. I have spent hours upon
hours experimenting, sweating and laboring, and even more time
thinking. I became almost obsessed with blurring the line
between Strength, Endurance and Mobility.
Research and experimentation led me down a road that yielded
some incredible results, for my clients as well as myself. Over
time, some unique variations began to emerge.
It became apparent that I had a choice to make. I could keep it
all for myself, position myself as a "knower of secrets" or a
"Master on the Mountain".
But that's not me. I can't just keep it to myself. I am
determined to share the fruits of my labor with you.
I created a special invitation-only workshop. I wanted to
showcase how a wide variety of people from young girls to
hardened kettlebell veterans can dramatically enhance their
skills and range of workout programs as a result of my efforts.
I called it Full Body Power.
I invited several of my students and clients and put them
through the paces, brutally inspecting and de-constructing
everything, figuring out the best way to teach this material. We
recorded it and I spent hours going over the footage, reviewing
and refining.
I took the show on the road, so to speak, and began teaching the
material to my workshop attendees, asking for their opinions on
what they liked, disliked, what worked and didn't work and....
most importantly... WHY.
I consulted with my RKC colleagues and continued to meticulously
tweak the material over time.
The result is the DVD Full Body Power: Kettlebells Beyond the
Basics.
Do you need a great way to bust out of a training
slump
or plateau?
Do you want to add variety to your current training?
Are you ready to challenge yourself to higher levels
of skill and strength?
Are you ready to take your kettlebell training
Beyond
the Basics?
Discover
how to:
Train
your body to work as a single, powerful cohesive unit
across multiple planes of motion with the Turkish Windmill
Forge
your body into a piece of iron when you master these fun
and challenging variations on the standard Kettlebell Clean and
Press
Blast
your conditioning to mutant status and boost your
explosive power with a half dozen Clean & Squat variations in
the Thruster series
Dramatically increase shoulder, arm and core strength
with the
Follow the Leader press
Develop
the power of the old-time strongmen with the bent
press and two hands anyhow
Depending on
which size kettlebell you use, you can work pure
limit and explosive strength, strength endurance or pure cardio
endurance.
Many of these exercises have never been captured on video
before.
You may be asking "What makes this DVD so different from all the
other kettlebell instructional stuff on the market?"
I am glad you asked!
First, have a look at what the Full Body Power DVD is NOT:
A repackaging of the same old double kettlebell
drills that
you have already seen, pretending to provide a new solution to a
different training problem.
A massive encyclopedia of "filler"
exercises that serve no
purpose other than to increase the running time of the DVD.
A follow-along kettlebell workout.
An entry-level explanation of the swing, clean,
press and
snatch (That is all covered in Pavel's landmark book and DVD Enter
the Kettlebell!)
Now that
you know that, here is what it is:
Variations of kettlebell exercises that have never
been
captured on film before.
A look inside a real workshop by one of the world's
top
kettlebell instructors.
A clearly explained progression of intermediate to
advanced
exercises, so that you can develop your skill and strength over
time.
A detailed description of the windmill, Turkish
getup and Bent
Press.
A starting point for you to use your imagination in
developing
your own unique expression of strength, using kettlebells.
Logical combinations of basic exercises that flow
from one to
the next.
The Follow the Leader Press Series
Take your pressing power to uncharted territory! Learn the three
levels of the Follow the Leader press and watch your arm and
shoulder strength skyrocket.
Clean, Squat and Press Series
Variations on the exercise commonly called the "thruster",
including the pistol press. Springy legs and explosive power
await you!
Burpee Series
This is the KING of conditioning combinations! Build your
strength, explosive power and endurance all at the same time
with variations of this movement!
Turkish Windmill
There is a lot of buzz around the term "training the core" in
the fitness world these days. But what does it mean? How do you
do it? These two exercises and the combinations in the segment
will build serious core strength along with shoulder stability
and coordination.
Tips for mastering the Bent Press that will shave time off your
learning curve and have you doing the bent press the RIGHT way
(not a side press with excessive lean) in MINUTES not days.
Two Hands Anyhow
A favorite of old-time strongmen like Saxon and Sandow, the two
hands anyhow is a total-body study in flexibility, coordination
and strength.
PLUS: The bonus showreel "Hold My Beer and Watch This", filmed
at the Russian Kettlebell Challenge Certification in Copenhagen
Denmark May 2007.
These intermediate and advanced combination Kettlebell drills
are guaranteed to take your training to new levels!
"David Whitley's Full Body Power workshop was an eye- and
mind-opener. He taught us form, technique, and variations on
multiple classics, like the clean and press, the get-up, and the
(now even more dreaded) burpee. But he also taught us the
process by which he derived these innovative exercises, and
showed us how to innovate our own. It takes a true master to
teach others how to create; in this regard, David demonstrated
his mastery of the medium. I look forward to training with him
again." —James DiStefano, Atlanta, GA
"I just completed David's Iron Tamer advanced KB workshop at
Delaine Ross' Condition KB Gym in Atlanta. It was the absolute
best $$$ I ever spent on fitness education! David's workshop was
thorough and challenging. I was by far the least experienced in
the group with KBs, yet David was able to make quick adjustments
with me and anyone else in the group to keep things not only
safe but effective. He is extremely knowledgeable about not only
kettlebell training, but human biomechanics. He was able to
perform specific mobility drills with a few students struggling
with certain moves that enabled them to complete the drills
within just a few minutes of his adjustments. Everyone in the
group was very positive about the experience. I've been in the
fitness business for over a decade—David is one of the best I've
ever worked with and that is no BS! If you get the opportunity
to work personally with David 'The Iron Tamer' Whitley—DO IT!
You won't be disappointed!" —Ron Jones, MS, Corporate Wellcoach, Atlanta-Los Angeles
