Learn to freely borrow from the diversity of detailed systems discussed, and delight to the insight behind their creators’ mindsets. Since an original Russian all-rounder, George “the Lion” Hackenschmidt, established long-standing weightlifting records at the turn of LAST century, Pavel’s latest compendium of Soviet methods is way past due! Top notch Russian powerlifters, exacting coaches, and meticulous research studies point to strength building schemes that absolutely PRODUCE! “Intelligent intensity and total dedication along with stimulating variety is the theme among numerous training strategies featured in Pavel’s new Power to the People Professional. It is that good.”-Dan John, author of Never Let Go As my "Must Have" collection of books spirals higher each year, I am comfortable in saying that this book will quietly show the door to one or two of the books on my previous lists.

Honestly, just pick the book up and pop open a chapter. If the RKC is the "School of Strength," this is the special ops class. “This is a graduate program in getting strong. While elite athletes and powerlifters are those most likely to benefit from the advanced training information contained within Power to the People Professional, there remains a wealth of cutting-edge tips and tactics that intermediate lifters, athletes from various power sports, and power bodybuilders can use to immediately enhance their strength and power. Some of the chapters are straightforward coverage of “how they do it in Russia”, others represent Pavel’s own original work based on years of research and experimentation. In Power to the People Professional, Pavel broadens and deepens this knowledge base to encompass a vast range of little-known but highly effective methods to keep tricking our stubborn bodies into ever-greater strength gains. And thanks to his ability to ground theory in the proof of hard experience and earned results. And in this, Pavel has succeeded admirably, thanks to his access to the best training secrets not only in the West but in Russia-justly famous for its history of achievement in the world of strength and powerlifting. Pavel’s great contribution has been to research and identify the proven “battle” strategies that give us the best chance to keep making those strength gains-whatever the odds. Losses and set-backs are a constant in this see-saw struggle of adaptation and survival. Only hard-fought gains-born of skill, will, and right knowledge. There is no final victory in the quest for extra strength. The war on weakness is a war we wage our whole lives. Pavel took the guesswork out of strength training and honed in with an elegant simplicity on what really worked to get stronger-and continue getting stronger. Pavel Tsatsouline’s landmark classic, Power to the People! has helped tens of thousands-be they world-class athletes or basement enthusiasts-achieve and maintain remarkable strength gains, by employing a set of radically effective lifting principles in a scientific manner. Get stronger and more powerful immediately and this day on-using proven, yet little-known training secrets and strategies from the greatest of the Russian strength masters
