That Journey Starts

HERE.

From The Desk Of Geoff Neupert

Overlooking Pike's Peak, Colorado, USA

You're Just Not Strong Enough - YET.

Like my good friend Mark Reifkind, StrongFirst Master Instructor, former USA Powerlifting Women's Team Coach, and former college gymnast says =

 

 “Strong fixes almost everything.”

 

Think about it – strength is the ability to do whatever you want to do when you want to do it.

 

And if you can’t do what you want to, then you’re not as strong as you could be and should be.

 

And that’s most likely holding you back – either physically or emotionally or worse yet, both.

 

And I can assure you nothing feels as good as being strong.

 

It’s true: Strong fixes almost everything.

 

For example, did you know to get really lean, you need to be stronger?

 

Think about it – the leanest people on the planet are strength and power athletes – sprinters, Olympic weightlifters (not the superheavyweights), and gymnasts.

 

All incredibly lean.

 

All incredibly strong.

 

Here’s why that’s so:

 

Being stronger means you can produce more force. And producing more force means you can do more work. And doing more work requires more energy in the form of stored calories – or body fat.

 

So the stronger you are, the more potential body fat you can burn.

Strong Fixes Everything.

Here’s another example: Marathon runners.

 

No, not the 250-pound donut-eating kind you see rolling across the line 5 hours after the start with Gatorade strapped to each hand.

 

I’m talking about the elite – the Kenyans.

 

Sure, they may not have the physiques that you or I want – but they’re stronger than their competitors because they’re the ones that win.

 

And how do they win?

 

They produce more force and therefore cover more distance per unit of time.

 

That makes them the fastest, and therefore the strongest when compared to their competition.

 

What do Kenyan marathon runners have to do with getting stronger with kettlebells?

 

Simple.

 

Before you can do a lot of reps to achieve superior levels of strength and conditioning, you have to achieve minimal levels of strength and conditioning with fewer reps.

 

Before you can run 26.2 miles quickly, you have to be able to run one mile quickly.

 

The same holds true for kettlebells:

 

Before you can do 20 reps of the Long Cycle Clean And Jerk, you have to be able to do 10 and before that, five.

 

At the end of the day, that's because...

You Have To Build Your Strength First.

And the stronger you are, the easier it is to build your endurance.

 

What about just plain ol’ getting strong as an ox?

 

Simple.

 

You have to lift more weight – either one rep at a time, like a new one-rep max or you have to be able to do more work per unit of time.

 

Regardless of your goal – the best way to get there is by getting stronger.

 

How do I know for sure?

 

Now would be a great time for me take a quick moment to introduce myself. 

"Technique Stacking" is a very specific educational sequence that allows you to master complex exercise techniques by layering one technique on top of another in a formulaic and structured manner.

 

You start with one simple exercise and work on several key points. Then you learn a more complicated exercise, applying the key points that you learned in the first exercise.

 

Then you take each technique that you learn and apply it to the next exercise.

 

The learning process is accelerated through repetition, cementing exercise technique at a faster-than-normal pace.

 

For example, most people would start their double kettlebell training with the Double Swing.

 

Good idea, but wrong place to start.

 

Why?

 

Because although a great conditioning exercise, the Double Swing doesn’t have nearly the transfer to the double kettlebell lifts as another specific exercise – one which sets the foundation for the double kettlebell lifts and is found inside Kettlebell STRONG!.

 

(Most people would never believe, let alone think about using this exercise as their foundation for double kettlebell lifting. But when you see why, the explanation will make perfect sense to you. Not only that, you’ll start making fresh new gains in strength, power, and conditioning when you rework this exercise into your program.)

 

Of course, this presumes you know what the proper techniques are for maximum force production.

 

Unfortunately, many, if not most kettlebell trainees do not.

Please read below to see if you qualify.

 

Who this is NOT for:

 

  • Those who are brand new to kettlebell training

  • Tire-kickers and bargain hunters who are looking for the best “deals” around (there is nothing on the market like this)

  • Whiners and complainers who never achieve their goals

  • People who would rather waste their time spending hours hunting for low quality instructional kettlebell videos on YouTube

  • “Collectors” – People who buy kettlebell books, DVDs, and workouts, and never do them

  • People who “only” have one kettlebell (If you have to ask what I mean by “only” then you’re in this category).

  • Anybody else who isn’t serious about kettlebell training

Who Kettlebell STRONG! IS for:

  • Intermediate and advanced kettlebell users (more than 6 to 12 months experience)

  • People with more than one kettlebell or who are willing to buy another kettlebell

  • Hardcore kettlebell trainees – those who are “sold” on all the benefits of kettlebell training and love the results they see from using them.

  • Kettlebell instructors who train others with kettlebells and want a solid teaching progression to help their students/clients achieve phenomenal results in strength and low body fat percentages with double kettlebell training.

  • Students of kettlebell training who want to get in the best physical shape of their life – leaner and stronger than ever before – and know that doubles work is THE way to make that happen.

When you order Kettlebell STRONG! today, you'll receive immediate access to two instructional videos

 

Almost 4 hours of in-depth, never-publicly-seen footage, with step-by-step instructions to quickly and safely learn how to perform each of the nine fundamental double kettlebell exercises and the 89 page detail-stuffed Training Manual.

 

And no, this isn’t a “book” with a ton of pictures as filler and 20 pages of advertisements at the end.

 

It’s all meat, no garnish – cues, techniques, and tips you’ve probably never seen before. (Or you've seen from me or someone I've trained in other contexts.) Sure, there are pictures, but they’re included to prove each point, not take up space.

 

Including:

  • Double Swing
  • Double Military Press
  • Double Clean
  • Double Front Squat
  • Double Push Press
  • Double High Pull
  • Double Jerk
  • Double Snatch
  • Double Clean & Jerk

 

Not only that, you'll learn the most common double kettlebell training mistakes and nore importantly -

 

How to avoid them.

 

And when you can't avoid them, you'll learn corrections and additional strength exercises to help you perform the exercises correctly.  It's just like being at a live event, but without the headaches and extra cost of travel, and without the “drinking from the firehose.” experience.

 

Heck, even if you have attended a seminar, I’m sure you agree that there was so much information that it’d be great to have a resource to review and refresh your memory and even pick up tips and tricks you missed the first time through.

 

Finally, these videos are “quasi-interactive” – I’m teaching you, and then a “model” (or "guinea pig" if you prefer) gets to apply the techniques I’ve just covered – live. And that means you can see immediate "before" and "afters" in his performance, so you know what to look for while performing these techniques yourself.

 

The best part about this is that he’s never been to one of my seminars, so this is all new material for him, just as it is for you. You’ll enjoy watching him squirm!

Hello there Mr. Neupert! 

I just wanted to thanks so much for putting  KB Strong together and all the other products I have picked up from you the past year (KBurn Extreme, More KB muscle..).  I never thought I would ever be strong enough to become an RKC or now an SFG, but thanks to your products I have become leaner and stronger than ever before.  I'm 34 now, so it' s kinda a big deal since I have a family and a child (possibly more in the future) that I want to inspire.  Your work has also helped me become a much better personal trainer, and earlier this month I did the SFG cert under Pavel and Dan John and passed!  That weekend was tough, but there was never really a doubt in my mind that I wouldn't make it.  All the complex work got my conditioning set for the snatch test, and KB Strong totally gave me everything I needed to make sure my form was up to snuff.  All this with just your products. I had no one to coach me except you, in a way.  So, I say all that to say "Thanks!" I pray God continues to bless your work!

Bruce Salazar, SFG

Geoff's best work yet!

 

This is simply the best book/DVD on double kettlebell training that I have seen.

 

"Kettlebell Strong" is a must have for anyone that wants to improve their technique and truly master all double kettlebell lifts.

 

I highly recommend this book for ALL kettlebell instructors! If you want to be a better teacher/coach then get this book. Geoff demonstrates each exercise and takes you through each exercise step by step. He addresses the common mistakes made and how to correct these mistakes.

 

The mobility drills that Geoff incorporates is crucial to mastering the double kettlebell skills. Move better and you will perform better, and performing better leads to   a greater increase in strength.

Kim Blanton, IKFF/CFT2, HKC

I am six weeks in to STRONG/The One and I am seeing results that have stunned me.

Charlton Hoag

Hey Geoff,

 

I'm about 2/3 of the way through "Strong" (using 24's) and I noticed a strange phenomena. The first couple of sets the 'bells feel heavy, but after round 2 focusing on feet and tension, they get lighter and lighter each round... Bizarre!

 

Looking forward to "Slow and Steady" and "One"

 

Best Regards,

James - "The (soon to be) World's Strongest IT Analyst"

"Kettlebell Strong" is absolutely masterful.  The most thorough and clear double kettlebell instruction I've ever seen.

Bill Been

I have found a lot of it to be very helpful and often motivational.  Lately especially with Kettlebell Strong.  After following many of your tips and queues for specific exercises, I found that I feel like I am getting much more out of my workouts.  Many have gotten more difficult but also, and especially with swings I am not getting the lower back pain that I have been accustomed to getting after a kettlebell workout. (Guess my form wasn't as good as I thought)"

Jason Miloradovich

Hey Geoff, 

 

One week into it and ALREADY seeing results.  Really tightened up my Double Kbell Clean; I pushed myself yesterday to 3 sets of 9 clean reps with two 40 kg bells.  No dropping, and 2:1 rest ratio.  Good lord my heart was ready to explode!!!!   Looking forward to pushing it to the next faze next week!

Kelly Campion

Also the DVD's are brilliant, I am impressed with the amount of data in these two disc's, I have purchased other DVD's from other companies but nothing matches your work, thank you.

Gary Williamson

Thanks Geoff, it is the best instructional DVD I have ever seen bar none! 

Michael Rivera

First and foremost, thank you so much for "Kettlebell Strong!"  I have never made such gains so quickly.  I feel like I learned how to do each of the double kettlebell exercises correctly for the first time, and moved from 53 to 62 pounds almost immediately.  Thank you for the work you do to continue to improve technique and strength. 

Chris [Last Name Whithheld]

I really think your Kettlebell Strong DVD/Book is the best instructional KB material I have ever bought.  You do such a clear, concise way of presenting each technique.  I wish this stuff had been around when I first started KB's years ago, it would have saved me a lot of pain and wasted time.

Phil Gilliland

Thanks again for the great product. Literally made my press 100% better!! 

Mike Moran

My wife and I are really well with KB Strong! From being only able to get 25 pounders up when we first began, because of the whole bilateral frozen shoulder thingy, I am now pressing my 53 pounders. I've also dropped 15 or 16 pounds in the last 4 weeks, from 215 down to the magical, sub 200, 199 lbs.

 

My wife began with 12 pounders, then moved to 15 pounders and she is now pressing 25 pounders! She is also doing some 30 second 'holds' with a pair of 40 pounders!!!

 

Love the Strong First idea! Great program Geoff! Both my wife and I love the magnanimous feeling after a good and heavy practice session, much more so than a 300 kb swing session!

GJB

"Geoff, Wow!!!!!! Best program I have ever done. I am 41 years old and have been lifting weights since I was 18. I completed the “Strong” program with a max rep of 10 clean and presses. I then started the “Slow and Steady” program and had to stop at workout 17 due to family and work commitments. I started from the beginning and just finished up workout 22. Not only do I feel stronger but I feel better. I have gained about four pounds of muscle with no changes to my diet. The videos and companion book are priceless, they are easy to understand and very helpful. Being that I live in Eastern NC and have not been able to locate a kettlebell instructor within a two and a-half hour drive from my house I would like to thank you for being my coach and putting Kettlebell Strong together. Another thanks to you and Tim for putting Original Strength together, my quality of life has increased dramatically since I have started using both of these great resources.

Doug Niethammer

Geoff,

Your kettlebell strong program is honestly the best and most comprehensive of all of your programs. The detail in the book and the DVD is amazing. I seriously love this program.

Jeff Brewer

Great product! I don't regret my purchase. After reviewing the dvd and bool  started the strong program. I'm going to starting week 5. I use your dvd's much like I did with Pavel's ETK book/dvd like a "bible" of sorts. Your strong dvd's/book are my double KB bible. If I have a question or something doesn't feel right I pop in the dvd and check to see what mistakes I'm making and make corrections.

 

Pavel's "you're doing it wrong" always rings true hehe. 

 

My progress is coming along great so far. And I expect the great results to continue. I'm learning how to be uncomfortable in the rack!

Derek Jones

Geoff, I just wanted share with you the results of my 8 weeks of the "Strong"  phase. 

 

At the beginning of the 8 weeks my Double KB C&P number were Dbl. 28KG x 6 and Dbl 32KG x1 (missed 2nd rep attempt). 

 

Today after 8 weeks of KB Strong I hit 3 solid reps with Dbl. 32KGs (probably left a 4th in the hole).  Then hit 10 reps with the 28KGs.

 

I think anyone would be pleased with these results, but two things make these results even cooler.

1.  I am not new to the Dbl. KB Clean & Press, so not newbie gains here.

2.  During this 8 weeks I dieted down from 12.5% Body Fat to 9.3% body fat!

 

I also did a ton of Original Strength work over the last 8 weeks. Resets before, during, and after every workout.  Resets throughout the day plus longer Original Strength sessions on off days from training.  I now move better than I ever thought would be possible.

 

Original Strength and Kettlebell Strong are a match made in heaven! 

 

Thank you. 

Ben Bogard

Hey Geoff

 

Thanks for the bonuses and for the reply on the forum. The material is fantastic! 

 

I now have most of your programs…  They have not only helped me in my strength journey, but have also helped me with programming class and individual sessions with clients. Kettlebell Strong has helped me greatly with my prep for SFGII in Philly...   

 

Keep pumping out the goods!

Jody Beasley

Your "strong" progam is no joke, I never would have imagined doing multiple sets of  5 with double 24s in such a short period of time.

Mark Limbaga

Unfortunately, since I'm no longer teaching my Kettlebell STRONG! workshops, the majority of people using kettlebells are never going to be exposed to this material.

 

Which means they are never going to achieve their goals. They’ll still be frustrated not making it to the next level of strength, conditioning, and leanness. 

 

Worse yet, they’ll most likely abandon the kettlebell and end up moving from one late night TV workout to the next, continually failing in their quest for change, and finally quitting in the long run.

 

That’s why I decided to write Kettlebell STRONG! so that you can read, watch, and repeatedly review the best step-by-step method available to learn the double kettlebell skills – all from the comfort of your own home without the hassle of traveling.

 

But, let’s face it, the truth is, you don’t NEED Kettlebell STRONG!.

 

Not if you’re happy being weaker and fatter than you deserve to be.

 

Or not if you’re happy with sloppy technique – banging your wrists and shoulders when you Snatch and Clean or if you like having a sore lower back from your Front Squats or Swings.

 

If you like those things, then by all means, keep on doing them.

 

Harsh words, I know.

 

But to tell you anything other than the truth would be to disrespect you.

 

And respect you I do, which is why I decided to go way out of my way and out of my comfort zone and give you my absolute best information in the absolute best possible format – video and the written word.

 

When you’re ready to make unimaginable gains in strength, conditioning, and fat loss, get Kettlebell STRONG! by clicking the orange button below.

Thanks for reading.

 

Stay Strong,
