The Isochain 4-Week Strength Gain Challenge

by John McKean

"Beat the book regularly, and you'll eventually conquer the world!" was the definitive statement often repeated by my Olympic-style weightlifting friend, Don Booth. Don was a staunch believer in maintaining consistent, meticulous written records of every training session, down to exact poundage, set, and rep.

THE GREAT ISOCHAIN CHALLENGE

by John McKean

There's something amazing about a rugged solid-steel chain that invokes sheer power! In my initial experiences with the ISOCHAIN, I was pulling and pushing against familiar rock-solid links.

How to Master Your Environmental Challenges, Interview with Scott Carney, author of What Doesn’t Kill Us and The Wedge

By Adrienne Harvey, SrRKC, SrPCC

At the end of the earlier book, I'm climbing up Mount Kilimanjaro in a bathing suit, it's negative 30 degrees outside, and I'm not dead. And I have this realization at the top of the mountain, which leads to the cheesiest thing I've ever written in my entire life, which is: "I am not on the mountain, I am the mountain."

Meet Bill Kociaba, the world’s only blind Certified Kettlebell Instructor

By Adrienne Harvey, SrPCC, RKC-TL, CK-FMS
