This is the King of the book. Unlike the strict military press (which Pavel also loves), the jerk uses a slight "dip and drive" to launch the bells overhead. It builds monstrous shoulders, triceps, and crushing rack stability. It is the lift of old-time strongmen.
It is not just a book; it is a manifesto for building old-school, brutish, powerful muscle. I am talking about Return of the Kettlebell . Pavel Tsatsouline Return Of The Kettlebell.pdf
The PDF has been floating around strength forums for years. If you find a copy, print it out, spiral bind it, and let the sweat stains accumulate on the pages. Pavel would want it that way. Have you run the Bear Protocol? Let me know in the comments how long you lasted before your grip gave out. This is the King of the book
Forget the sloppy arm-swing. The double clean is an explosive hinge. It teaches you to move heavy weight from the floor to the rack position without destroying your spine. It is the gateway to all other doubles work. It is the lift of old-time strongmen
