    Wow!! I'm remember that interview because it was the first video I've ever seen about kettlebells. A few days later I've found your channel, a video reaction to Jeff Cavaliere's kettlebell technique. It was two years ago and two things I won't forget, one how by listening to Pavel Tsatsoulin impressed me to buy my first kettlebells and start training. His videos were a great source for KB training. The second, when I found your channel you only had 10K or less subscribers. The continuous growth shows you do offer quality information. By the way, I love your Turkish Get Up technique, it is clean, safe, easy and simple. I hope you make it to 50K subscribers soon!!! Thanks again for the information and the great efforts you put in every video!!

    His comments on greasing the groove and the biochemistry of hypertrophy were the catalyst for me to learn even more about human biology.
    Side note, the comments on how both Joe and Pavel look like kettlebells are hilarious. I buzz my head around the same time I fell in love with the kettlebell so maybe it's an unintended side effect.
    This interview helped completely reshape my relationship with fitness and movement. The inherent minimalistic nature of kettlebell training deeply moved me. As Mark Wildman says, "Unlimited variability, unlimited complexity. Simple but not easy."
    Progressing from 2 handed swing to the single arm swing clean, press and squat was immensely rewarding. Working up the strength AND the neurological connections to swing a bell over head then between my legs in the snatch was a personal victory like no other. It sounds silly but those that know and haven't been athletes their entire life will understand.
    My favorite way to move these days is to pull my gymnastic rings, kettlebell and steel mace/club from the trunk and get a workout in at the park. Barefoot and shirtless in the sun with my bare feet on the earth. Brilliant revelation.
    I really enjoy this style of commentary from you, Gregory. You've got a perspective which I admire.

    having read the original Soviet texts (translations) I would argue that leg extensions (for example) are actually not an SPP exercise but a GPP exercise. In the West, we have tended to use the Westside powerlifting definition where GPP is more systematic and SPP is more focused, like a pushup compared to an isometric press in the lockout range for example, but in the Russian terminology, GPP was more associated with the concept of being less technically dependent while SPP was more technically dependent, so an isometric press, having very little technical dependency was building the "general" attribute of high motor recruitment, independent of balance, tempo, bar path etc, while a jerk was SPP because it had a high technical demand, but it was harder to overload. The Squat, bench and deadlift were GPP exercises while in powerlifting they become SPP exercise, but Simmons considered partials to be even more SPP, even though they were less technical and therefore could be overloaded to build a GENERAL attribute independent of technique.

    • @lebe-stark
      @lebe-stark  Рік тому +4

      This is highly insightful and an intelligent comment, brother! I thought about the GPP/SPP concept for a long time. Example: For a kettlebell sport athlete, the Clean would be a SPP exercise. Whereas for an MMA fighter, it could be considered GPP. It's important to understand the distinctions between the sport and the various requirements the sport takes. After reading through Verkshoshansky's and Yessis' work, I understand that "SPP" is a term used for extremely specified exercises, that closely resemble the joint actions done in the particular sport. Thanks for sharing! 💪

  • @JustinRawley
    @JustinRawley Рік тому +3

    I like that minimalist approach, based on two main exercises and perhaps some supplemental exercises. It makes it easy to stick to a plan and there’s not a lot of mental overload on how to perform movements or program the workouts. I have been primarily focused on the KB swing and the iron cross pulls. I use the Ring Thing so I can get about ten reps with fairly long hold times, then with a dip belt, I can add weight and go down in reps.

    I do the majority of weightraining with weights and machines, but still like to mix it up with kettlebells (mostly swings and snatches). Actually by doing (quite heavy) machine shoulder my left shoulder has been a little numb (and even been hurting) sometimes, which before when I was doing a lot of kettlebell snatches and kb shoulder presses they did not. And when I started doing machines I was actually stronger in the lift than I'm now. I've been training quite a while so my max strength doesn't increase so much anymore.

    Yes, agree
    But he is speaking more in the long term. In terms of sustainability. The type of training that we can take with us throughout the rest of our lives.
    I don’t believe that this holds true for the athlete that is training for a specific sport.
    There is definitely a grey area here, but let’s look at the general concept more than the means of how we get there. In that respect, his philosophy is hard to argue.

    Something I would to see: in an old video, I think it was “enter the kettlebell” Pavel talks about doing presses with your lat, and something about “packing the shoulder”. Would you ever consider doing a video where you break down what he means? I find it hard to engage my lats on the press like he suggests.

    • @lebe-stark
      @lebe-stark  Рік тому +1

      Packing the shoulder means, to screw your upper arm into your shoulder for more stability. It takes time to start feeling your lats.

It felt good. I felt like I could do another exercise but didnt really need to have a productive day. I like Pavel he is like the Dave Ramsey of fitness. Not too academic or elitist.

    Mel Siff's book "Super Training" has list of athletics in the "burn" zone. Neither 400m sprint nor marathon are in it. 800m sprint and other odd swimming distances are categorized in the burn zone. The number's of competitors in this zone, apparently must be low in populations because I don't know an 800 meter sprinter very well. Just from jogging my memory.

    I found out about kettlebells two weeks ago. And I watched all the Pavel Tsatsouline videos and took notes. But I heard that's it's also alot of marketing and bs. So I'm trying to educate myself on all this stuff. I think Pavels powerlifting idea of doing 33-66% of the reps you can do but with more sets and resting 10-15 minutes seems great. What I dont understand is why he doesn't really believe in warming up. I wonder how dangerous that is. And I was under the impression the Russian special forces all use psychic abilities, like non-contact fighting. So maybe they don't need to warm up at all.

    • @utubepunk
      @utubepunk Рік тому

      I get what you're saying about the marketing, but kettlebells likely wouldn't have taken off & become popular here without that marketing. I'd stick to subject matter experts, like Coach Gregory here, Coach Dan John, Pavel, Steve Cotter & Mark Wildman to name a few.

    What Pavel says stands to reason: go too much into the burn and despite the heavy volume&tension applied to the muscle instead of it starting to look like a bodybuilder's prized possession it starts to look more like a marathon runner's t-rex arms&chicken legs.
    So while all exercise above a certain threshold(upwards of yoga lol?!) damages the muscles the body can only recover from so much(and if its not done recovering before the next session is initiated then instead of the muscle growing bigger&stronger it starts to shrink instead)

If u don't believe me then swing it for a year, 2 years, or 10 years and don't use barbells, dumbbells, machines, or free weights. Take a pic of yourself before u start, after u do it the time frame listed above check and see if your max in any lift got stronger, trust me it did not, then take your after pic and I promise u that u will not be able to tell which pic was your before and which pic was your after. Kettlebells were made for women to use to look cut during their exercising. Ask the biomechanic experts if u still don't believe me. They could be okay for some rehab work but not much. Have u ever seen a person who just uses kettlebells that was strong or big. No u have not!!!!

      Turning 49 tomorrow, I have the smallest hands/bone structure a man can have yet I am snatching the 32 kg for 100 reps in a workout( 10x10). I could not snatch the 24 for single digit reps a year ago.
      Barbell training just got me injured when getting the weights up, due to age.
      The protocol delvers what it promises>>>building mitochondria. The WTHE is just a bonus. In my case my also cardio went through the roof.
      It is not about using the Kb only. You could try it with burpees what I do currently-
      It will make the average Joe (not the elite athlet or bodybuilder...Pavel does not write for them) significantly ....younger in his/her movements and physical ability.
