“Tsatsouline, a former fitness instructor for the Soviet Special Forces, immigrated to the United States in the 1990s. He is largely responsible for popularizing the kettlebell, a piece of strength training equipment that basically looks like a round iron purse with a short strap that’s also made of iron. This book gives a simple, sophisticated, direct, and useful introduction to kettlebell training, which is an especially accessible type of strength training, especially for people who want to train at home.
