Training Unit # One:
Pavel Tsatsouline's Tactical Kettlebell ™ Program
|
Discover Pavel's Sure-Fire Program for Getting a Military Unit or Law Enforcement Agency Up-to-Speed with Russian Kettlebells - In Just One Day!
As a bestselling author and widely-acclaimed strength and flexibility expert, Pavel Tsatsouline has spearheaded the Russian Kettlebell revolution first in the US and now globally - with an RKC network that includes the UK, Europe, Canada, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and South Africa.
Pavel Tsatsouline is a former Soviet Spetsnaz PT instructor, a nationally ranked kettlebell lifter, and an S.M.E. to the US Department of Energy nuclear security teams, the USMC Force Recon, and the US Secret Service Counter Assault Team, amongst others.
By request, Pavel developed The Tactical Kettlebell PT program, which he designed specifically for the needs of the US special operations community.
Pavel's Tactical Kettlebell ™ presumes no previous kettlebell experience and a history of shoulder, back, and knee injuries. It employs one 53-pound kettlebell per operator and assures the steepest learning curve, even in large units.
The objectives of the Tactical Kettlebell ™ Program are to:
- Maximize all types of strength required for special operations (absolute strength exerted on the background of systemic and muscular fatigue, explosive strength endurance, etc.) as well the endurance for high power applications such as CQB and obstacle courses.
- Replace calisthenics with a low degree of tactical specificity and a low benefit/risk ratio (such as flutter kicks and pushups) with kettlebell exercises that have a high degree of tactical specificity and a high benefit/risk ratio.
- Dramatically reduce the incidence of typical SOF injuries, especially hamstring pulls, shoulder injuries, lower back problems, both in training and combat.
- Develop mental toughness.
- Accomplish the above at a low cost and in the conditions of deployment.
Pavel has identified seven key kettlebell drills that most fit the needs of special operations and - unlike some of our favorite exercises - are extremely easy to learn. Discover what they are and how to put them together for this supremely functional strength and endurance program.
Pavel will teach you how to perform and implement his entire Tactical Kettlebell ™ Program and will back it up with his complete Tactical Kettlebell ™ manual, formerly available only to qualified members of the special operations community.
What's More, You'll Get this PRICELESS Bonus for FREE:
Pavel spent years of research and development designing the most efficient, results-based, hyper-practical manual to support our troops and officers in rapidly mastering Russian Kettlebells —
And by attending this workshop you'll automatically get your own FREE copy of Pavel's Tactical Kettlebell ™ manual, with full authorization to duplicate it for your Government clients!
I don't have to knock you too hard around the head to emphasize what a tremendous extra training-weapon you'll have in your arsenal, when you become licensed to teach Pavel's most elite kettlebell program to others!
And do I really have to spell out to you how much extra value you can offer by also being able to legally include Pavel's training manual as part of your own course?
But wait, there's even more…
Pavel's going to give you a bonus training in his Tactical Mobility™, especially designed for urban warfare - and never, ever available before to civilians.
Pavel's Tactical Mobility™ is not about high kicks and splits - it's about hitting the dirt fast. Staying closer to the ground than you thought possible. And then moving - fast!
Tactical Mobility™ is about assuming low and stable shooting stances in a full kit silently and with lightning speed.
What you learn here could help save the life of an American in uniform - correction: many such lives. Care to put a value on this knowledge, when it's yours to offer others?

"If I were to recommend one Physical Training program to develop a Marine's overall strength and fighting capability, it would be one prescribed by Pavel Tsatsouline. His exercise principles are well researched, easy to implement, and focus directly on a functional end-state: high caliber efficiency. From hoisting his beloved Kettlebells to Janda sit-ups to one-legged squats, results are declarative… stop looking for a better piece of equipment or diet supplement and get 'Pavelized.' —George H. Bristol, Lt. Col., USMC, Commander, 3rd Reconnaissance Battalion, Founder Marine Corps Martial Arts Program
"I am having a great kettlebell year. Validating every day the swing/snatch till you're ready to puke, then sit down program. Exactly like sprinting from cover to cover in an urban fight." —Name withheld, a US Army officer, from Iraq
"I've personally utilized nearly every other system available over the years and have come to the conclusion that Pavel's program is the most effective program out there right now. It's both simple and sinister... I'm still angry that it took me this long to figure it out." —Name withheld, United States Secret Service Counter Assault Team Instructor
"The exposure to this method of physical training was outstanding, as was Pavel's method of instruction. For tactical operators the use of the kettlebell… is the best form of PT I have experienced." —Name Withheld, Instructor, U.S. Secret Service
"You can't get this stuff just from books and tapes.... Pavel is all about nuance. Very tiny changes in position, grip, muscle recruitment, tension, and a myriad of other skills all conspire to make dramatic improvements in our kettlebell work and basic strength. An incredible seminar…" —Eugene R. Allen, Pierce County Sheriff's Department SWAT Team
"I am a police officer for the Port of Seattle police and I am a member for Valley Special Response Team (SWAT). I have been lifting weights for over 17 years for conditioning and I have noticed that my body is slowly starting to ache, and not in the good way. I have been having problems with my back that has come from years of weight lifting and years of grappling (Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu). I perform some leg exercises such as squat, deadlift but only with a belt. Even using light weight, I would still wake up the next day with a sore lower back that would last a couple of days. Using your methods and performing the exercises as you instructed me, was the first time that my back was pain free, but my glutes, quads, and hamstrings were sore. I am sold on your system!" —Steve Courtney, Seattle, WA

Nate Morrison’s Kettlebells for Military Combatives and Fitness System

Nate Morrison in Iraq, March 2003, during the first week of the invasion
|
Discover Kettlebell Combat Applications That Have Been Battle-Tested in Afghanistan and Iraq
“You’ve had your entire life to prepare for this moment. Why aren’t you ready?”
SSgt Nate Morrison is a member of the US Air Force’s elite 300 man personnel rescue and recovery force called Pararescue. He has been on the leading edge of nearly every major combat operation in the last 11 years to include the most recent invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq. He has been assigned to and worked with the USN SEALS, Army Special Forces and Rangers, USMC Force Reconnaissance, allied SAS, and other coalition special operations teams. Currently he is an instructor at the US Army Military Freefall School teaching US and allied operators high altitude parachuting tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs).
Over the last 3 years Nate has begun to blend the fundamentals of strength training, rehabilitation science, hand-to-hand combatives from Systema, Ninjutsu, and the Samurai arts as well as his own combat experience into the next generation of integrated movement sciences and physical training for military and law enforcement operators. The beauty of this methodology and training is that it also has direct carry over to your personal life. It will change the way you do absolutely everything in life. Enhancement means nothing if it does not change the whole operating system.
“We’re not making corn flakes here.”
—Charlie Beckwith, Founder of SFOD (Delta Force)
Combat is not something to be taken lightly. Despite the disgusting commercialization of the word by promoters of fighting sports, it is not a sport. The UFC is a game. A group of men armed with AKMs and RPGs in the middle of a desert town filled with people who could care less if you died is the reality of combat. When that day comes, will you be able to muster the speed, surprise, and violence of action to overcome the odds and be victorious? Will you move with efficiency and skill? Will your movement and mind become one? Will they be fluid and ever changing with the situation?
OR
Will you be unsure and hesitate at the moment that counts most? Will your mind scream out instructions that your body can’t follow? Will your movement be exhausting and rigid? Will your inefficiency whittle away your reserves as the battle rages? Will you find yourself slowing down when you should be speeding up?
To stay ahead of the enemy you must be able to move, shoot, and communicate better and faster than he does. If you can’t move well, you can’t shoot well. If you are too focused on either then you cannot communicate well. This slows you down. You can’t afford that.
The mind and body must function as one. The best operators have the best operating systems and the best software working in harmony. You can’t load MAC compatible programs into a computer with a Windows operating system and expect them to work together. Likewise, you can’t train like a bodybuilder, a MMA fighter, or a specialty athlete and expect to perform to your full potential under fire. It’s like studying Latin for an algebra test.
What you will learn:
- How to modify KB drills to enhance your ability to get to the ground and take cover quickly, quietly, safely, and efficiently while keeping your weapon on target.
- How to go from the ground to your feet in the same way and allow instant movement in any direction in the same manner.
- Learn how improper structural alignment robs your body of strength, power, and endurance and leads to injury. Then learn how to fix it forever.
- Learn when you should be tense and when you should relax your movement in combat.
- How to use breathing to recover quickly and increase your endurance and your ability to shoot accurately.
- How to use efficient movement to save lives.
- How to walk point and use Kettlebells to make you a better point man.
- How to incorporate KBs into immediate action drills
- The truth about movement, posture, and how to walk on patrol
- How to rehabilitate common injuries without a doctor using only Kettlebells
- Get on target faster and move faster
- How to properly configure your battle kit for combat. Separating the cool stuff from what you really need. The sexy stuff just might kill you!
- How to treat battle wounds and stay in the fight.
- The dangers of body armor and the injuries they cause.
- Relaxation in the thick of the fight
- How and why current military training methods are hurting our troops
- How to modify current military drills to maximize safety and effectiveness

The business rewards and personal results from attending Pavel's Russian Kettlebell Challenge Certification have often been spectacular… but whatever you have achieved so far, imagine what you'll be able to achieve after taking
Kettlebells for Combat Applications…
"I have been a personal trainer since 1987, and frankly, I've never seen anything like the excitement generated by Russian kettlebells. This age-old art has infused my business with a new level of passion I've never seen before, and it's spreading like wildfire.
Let's start with the financial benefits. I've more than doubled my personal training income since becoming Russian kettlebell certified, which has enriched my career as well as my personal life. This past Thanksgiving I was actually able to leave the gym behind and whisk my wife away on a rugged 2-week trip to Costa Rica, something that simply would not have been feasible before.
December 2004 was one of my busiest months ever. Business was up, and clients were in a generous mood. My wife couldn't help but note the huge increase in holiday tips I received, which nearly covered the cost of our Costa Rican adventure!
"What do you attribute it to," she asked. "The economy isn't that great." I immediately summed it up in one word: "KETTLEBELLS!"
The bottom line is, my clients were feeling generous because they were grateful for what they'd gained (and lost!) over the past year! I've had incredible results across the board with all my clients, male and female, since kettlebells entered the picture.
One of my longtime clients lost 26 pounds in six weeks. His sister and her husband, visiting from Ireland over the holidays, were totally amazed at both his fitness level and this odd "new" form of training.
A newer client lost three dress sizes and really toned up in the span of two months that she had to prepare for her wedding.
A masseuse called me to inquire about kettlebell training because she couldn't help but notice the change in muscle tone our mutual client had achieved.
Success stories like these—and there are many—made for a lot of very happy and fit clients with a renewed interest and commitment to training.
Needless to say, these kinds of results also brought a lot of new business my way last year. I now have a physical therapist sending me clients because of the improvements he's seen in his patients' strength and mobility after sending them my way.
"Beyond the professional gains, Russian kettlebells have really benefited me on a personal level as an athlete…"
I am 46 years old and have pursued a very rugged and adventurous outdoor lifestyle for as long as I can remember. As a result, there were a few old injuries that had really started to dog me in the past couple of years.
Since becoming RKC certified, however, things have changed. I have made amazing strength gains, but perhaps more importantly in terms of improving my quality of life, I have increased the flexibility and joint mobility in my hips and shoulders tremendously. Both have been invaluable in terms of increasing my enjoyment of rock climbing, skiing, and hiking, not to mention improving my performance exponentially!
My endurance, strength-to-weight ratio, core strength, static strength, grip strength, and flexibility are all markedly greater than before I started training with kettlebells and incorporating Pavel's other techniques.
Pavel has a way of cutting through the B.S., and he gave me the essential information and techniques that work, both for my clients and for me personally. No question about it, becoming a Russian Kettlebell Certified Instructor is the best move I have made in 18 years as a trainer."

"My income has nearly doubled since taking my RKC cert, all without any extra investment in time (from about $30,000 to $60,000)."—Jason C. Brown, RKC, Roslyn, PA
"I'm a training specialist for the Florida Dept. of Law Enforcement.
Since attaining RKC status, I've been able to train the head Officer Survival Instructor in kettlebell techniques; and have also convinced him to add kettlebell workouts to our Special Agent Training Class.
As a result of implementing kettlebells in our training regimen, I firmly believe we are creating a safer and more resilient cadre of Special Agents for the protection of the citizens of the State of Florida. I don't believe any of this would have been possible had I not attended the RKC Certification Program!"—Craig T. O'Connell, FDLE Leadership Center
"Since attending the April 2003 Kettlebell certification my business has expanded to the point that my wife and I were able to open up our own Fitness Facility in La Jolla , California in November of 2004.
Our business was expanding so much last year, it didn't make any sense financially for us to stay at the gym we were renting space from before we opened up the center. I highly recommend that any strength and conditioning coach, trainer or fitness enthusiast take the Kettlebell Certification as it will clearly give you the edge you need to stand out in your community." —Franz Snideman RKC, La Jolla, CA
"I am the owner of a physiotherapy practice and strengthening is an integral part of recovery. Unfortunately, I have found that most conventional strengthening systems are impractical for most of my clients for various reasons. I had excellent results personally with kettlebell training and felt that it would be applicable to my clients as they are available in a variety of weights.
Like most everything I have experienced from DragonDoor, the course exceeded my expectations. Since the course, I have successfully used the kettlebells for rehabilitation. I have also run up to three classes per week after work hours at a local gym because of the buzz that has been created. I should note that there have been no injuries in the past year and a half since I started teaching, which is remarkable considering many of my students are also clients who have been recovering from injuries.
Although I have never advertised these classes, I am already busier than I want to be with teaching due to the word of mouth generated by my students. This exposure certainly hasn't hurt my physiotherapy practice either.
"At last I can offer my clients a time-tested and effective anti-aging fitness program rather than vaguely telling them they need to strength train and stretch daily."
The kettlebells have solved my previous dilemma of effective exercise prescription and I truly believe have started a lot of people who otherwise would never before participated in an exercise program down a lifelong path of better health and fitness.
I now feel like I am a complete health care provider with the skills I can pass along a kettlebell instructor."—Keith Weber, BScPT, RKC, Red Deer, Canada
"I've never been in better overall condition and have dropped my bodyfat from 16% to 12% since the RKC. "—Frank Holas. RKC, Spring Grove, IL

"Okay, I obviously need to attend Kettlebells for Combat Applications — I realize it will clearly make a huge difference in my life, both physically and financially. So what's the tuition going to be?"
Just from the regular RKC certification you've seen people (and perhaps yourself) more than doubling their incomes and completing transforming themselves and their clients physically. There are stories of $30,000.00 in added income, of fabulous vacations, grateful clients and much, much more.
If you combined the amount of money the Kettlebells for Combat Applications instructors have personally spent in their lives to arrive at their current skill and knowledge build, it's got to be at least $600,000! And the instructors' combined combat applications experience could easily top a hundred years!
What value do you put then, on a training of this excellence and quality, of this rarity and targeted specialty?
How much is it worth to you to get the inside kettlebell combat training secrets not just from one master of the trade, but five?
And what's it worth to you to get all these skills and knowledge in just two days - instead of the years and years and years it took each of these instructors to amass what they'll teach you here in no time at all?
Imagine if you had to scratch and claw and experiment and stumble around and knock your head against the wall for years, just in the hope to be even in the same ballpark as these gentlemen!
But, as you know, you get it all fed to you, instantly downloaded, in just two days!
Would you value the impact on your future, physically and financially, at $100,000.00, $50,000.00, $10,000.00? $5,000.00? Or as low as $2,500.00? (When most of you should be able to make that back within a few months of taking the course.)
Well, we have a mission. Which is to build a powerful network of elite certified kettlebell instructors, who can truly make a difference to this country's security and safety. We realize that for some of you — regardless of the eventual financial and physical advantages that will be yours to reap — even $2,500.00 could present an insurmountable obstacle.
So, we've set the tuition for the training at only $1,495.00.
