Yes 57 here still doing it.

Can't agree more!

@@Emptyssify The reason I quit swinging those bells. I felt my knees, low back. It's a powerful movement, lots of forces going on at the joints. Even with good form..

I disagree with him publicly and repeatedly misattributing injuries of others to KBs. In the SF forums Brett Jones clarified he had 9 surgeries, not 9 knee surgeries. Pavel is well known for an army elbow injury and yet into his late 40 was ranked in 2020 in Kumite competition for Kyokushin Karate. I would have a hard time believing minimalist KB programming came about because he couldn’t do more than two movements. And which movements? - swings are still there in both SS and Q&D with TGUs and push-ups (dips for Pavel…DIPS), respectively; those are both very shoulder and elbow engaged movements! What other apparently high-hip/knee-impacting movement is there that Maxwell would be indicting? Comparably lightweight front squats? Comparably very lightweight goblet squats?

@@NGAOPC I experienced what I experienced. I'm 55 now, first workout at 13 years. Bodybuilding style training mostly, without the steroids. I know my body. You do what you think is best ofcourse. I'll do that just as well. I don't care for Pavel btw. He's just one guy, and not my working out Messiah. 😉

@@Ve-suviusthan I’m sorry, and that would be to you and not you and as you imply, not everyone - and you should be assessed for other physical problems if 53lbs of resistance is damaging to you. But most importantly his claims entailed patent lies about others injuries. That should matter to you and everyone. I’m 52, growing up I was a 6,4” beanpole and weighed seldom more than 170 until I was 30. That isn’t speaking for everyone, as it isn’t everyone. I’m now 197 typically, KBs, barbells and ruckmarching. Far healthier than I was in my 20s. That isn’t healthy for everyone but some combination for a great many people, as are a great many other activities I don’t PERSONALLY do.

Which resources do you suggest to learn more about his specific advice?

@@dm8127 the Internet...

Jack Lalane huh? Well if I go down a rabbit hole on his training philosophy and never return, I'm blaming you

@@uberjackkde I don't think he's right - at least, I don't think the proof Steve is saying is self-evident is actually proof or self-evident. I think he's more likely making the common mistake of correlation being causation with the Kettlebells injuries stuff. I also think he's not on serious scientific ground with his claims about time under tension being the most important, about weight itself not mattering, not training to failure vs training to failure. I am not saying his new preferred methods for training don't work. But I think he's throwing everything else under the bus without very good scientific reason other than he thinks it is higher injury risk and/or unnecessary. Thinking those things are true does not make them true. I like Steve and he's well intentioned. I don't agree with the confidence with which he's rejecting certain training modes for everyone.

Well my man Dan didn't bring any fucking evidence either more specifically scientific evidence he is just saying well people are predisposed to have certain issues well duh wtf. Was Charles poliquin a retard he said the kettlebell swing is 🐎💩 just aggravates back issues and that's what happend to me so why the heck would I accept an anecdotal evidence from Dan over Charles tried both their principles got banged up with one still trying to heal from it without a surgery years later.

Wtf is that suppose to mean?

Let us know what you think about this interview with Steve Michael- kzfaq.info/get/bejne/edh-nbKLy9TVqnk.html

Steve Crackwell

He took an elbow in the mouth during bjj practice, cunttard.

He lost his tooth in a BJJ match so keep your mouth shut if you don't wanna lose all yours soy boy.

Steve seems like a fitness industry grifter

Money... It's like the Ring in L.O.T.R.
