| | | SIMPLE & SINISTER 2.0 AUDIOBOOK IS NOW AVAILABLE
“Pavel has updated his masterpiece Kettlebell Simple & Sinister.

I direct them to Pavel’s work to assist in programming therapeutic and performance-enhancing exercises achieved with the minimal yet optimal dose. These approaches work. I am a better individual in terms of personal resilience and performance integrating the insights from this book, a better consultant to patients, and a better person for knowing Pavel.
An interesting fact: After having measured some of the top strength athletes in the world, I can say Pavel has the strongest torso and core of anyone I’ve ever measured."
—Stuart McGill (Professor Emeritus), author of Ultimate Back Fitness and Performance
