Pavel Tsatsouline, “the evil Russian” is a former Soviet Special Forces instructor and the man that helped make kettlebells a standard piece of equipment in the toolbox of anybody wanting to be big and strong. I was re-reading some of his material today and I have to say, the man really knows his stuff. The concepts and training techniques that he introduces will help you get bigger and stronger fast and will allow you to apply that strength in combat, competition or in life. Pavel suggests that if you want to get strong check out Power to the People, if you don’t have access to weights, The Naked Warrior is the way to go and if you want the combination of strength, fat loss and fitness go for Enter the Kettlebell for the men or From Russia With Tough Love for the ladies.

What is your ONE training goal at the moment? Do you have one or do you have many? Do you want to put on some muscle size and get stronger in the bench and increase your power and lean out a little and prepare for that powerlifting meet and, and …..
While there may well be a crossover between some of these things, it is nearly impossible to do everything you can do to reach one goal without putting another under pressure.
It is generally considered far better to have one major goal or at the most two interconnected goals at one point in time than try to achieve it all. You can always change your goal after you spend to time and energy in the process of meeting this one.
So my question again is “What is your ONE training goal at the moment?”

Performed exactly like a bench press but lying on the floor, the floor press is used by powerlifters to strengthen the mid and lockout phase of the bench and by some bodybuilders and strength athletes to develop size and strength through the chest, shoulders and triceps. You can use a barbell or dumbbells for the press.
One thing about the floor press, it makes cheating difficult, so if you want to maximise your upper body strength, give it a go.
In this video, you can see the floor press done with a barbell and chains.
