New eBook: Introduction to Kettlebells – Just $1 on Amazon!
Recently, I wrote a short (read: 30 pages) eBook called Introduction to Kettlebells, which is now available on Amazon for a whopping — brace yourself! — $1.
You can snag it here ==> https://amzn.to/2HgwJgO
Short story: Introduction to Kettlebells is a quick and dirty reference guide to the core single kettlebell techniques — exercises like the swing, snatch, clean, get up, squat, etc — and a simple, 7-day training cycle for getting strong and tough.
Inside the eBook are instructional pointers, pictures of each technique, and links to video tutorials. Finally, a simple and straightforward collection of workouts for improving general physical preparedness with just one kettlebell.
While this eBook is aimed at beginners, I think even veterans will get something out of it, since it’s always good to brush up on technique and return to basics.

Just found your podcast about a week ago and love it. I have a question for either of you. I am a builder/finish carpenter and just turned 50. I had a bad fall from a scaffold last July. I broke my jaw, both wrists, one of my vertebrae, and dislocated my shoulder. I am almost back to normal (thanks to my wife who works in Occupational Therapy), but I want to strengthen my body back to be more resilient and not let these injuries put a damper on my work or my life. I was in the Marine Corps straight out of high school and would love to get back to that kind of general physical ability. I have grown to appreciate band work and more moves like Original Strength (Tim Anderson). The goblet squat is awesome and just feels right. My question is what are your thoughts on Belt Squats? I am a little hesitant to load too much on my spine, plus my shoulder mobility is not quite back to where it was. Thanks so much. Quinten
Hi Quinten,
Thanks for tuning in. My opinion on belts squats is generally positive, especially if there are reasons why traditional front or back squats may be inaccessible. I’ll discuss this further with Dan on a future episode for you.
