Pavel's best book since Power to the People, May 10, 2004
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Naked Warrior (Paperback)
Along with Power to the People, this is THE "how to" manual for getting
stronger. The workout Pavel recommends contains only two exercises, the
one-armed push-up and the pistol, a one-legged squat. But these
exercises are not merely prescribed as a routine. Pavel uses them to
teach you how to gain total body strength via the mastery of muscle
tension. Really, the exercises are just vehicles for you to learn the
skill of intense, total-body muscle contraction, although performing
them will obviously make you exceptionally strong in those movements. In
other words, this books teaches you how to be strong in all movements
through the mastery of two basic exercises. For those of you put off by
the difficulty of the exercises, Pavel demonstrates how to work up to
those movements via easier variations of the exercises. Definately worth
every penny.
