A friend of the author, a military and federal law enforcement veteran who lived at the tip of the spear for four decades and has the mileage to show for it, said after starting “I feel 15–20 years younger.”A Kettlebell Axe training session feels like a lumberjack’s powerful, unrushed, relentless.StrongFirst applied AXE to our go-to exercise, the kettlebell swing, and developed a bulletproof progression. Follow it two or three times a week and be unstoppable.Do it as standalone training―just add your favorite upper body work―or combine it with almost any athletic training.( The AXE swing protocol is not for beginners and this book does not teach kettlebell skills.
