Joining me on this episode is Josh Wang: a Canadian engineer, devoted husband, and loving father to a kid with a super cool name, AND a die-hard Hammer Head.

In this installment we talk about his ‘origin story’: how he got into fitness, the pitfalls and triumphs he experienced, and a few of my programs that turned out to be game changers for him.

Have you ever wondered “What the hell is Hanukkah, anyway?” Well, wonder no more, friend – in this episode I give you the low-down on the high-key badazz tale of how a rag-tag bunch of Jews with less training, crappy weaponry, and seemingly no chance managed to eject a massive empire from their midst, rededicate their temple, and re-establish independence.

Also, as promised in the episode itself, here is that nice and shiny link to my 99 Bodyweight & Kettlebell Workouts! https://www.alekssalkin.com/

Progress stalled? Stuck on a training plateau for weeks, months, or longer?

If you’re into strength training but have hit a serious snag, the fix may NOT be more of the same strength training you’ve been doing, but rather steering in a slightly different direction – namely muscle building.

In this podcast I cover 6 big reasons why you should consider building muscle to kick start your strength gains once more.

You’ll get told by everyone and their mother “there are no shortcuts to anyplace worth going!” Is that REALLY true though? Well, mostly. There is *1* authentic shortcut to improve your strength, stamina, muscularity, and anything else your little heart desires – and I reveal it in this show.

Oh, and while you’re at it, you’re probably gonna wanna take a look at the link I mentioned in the show: https://alekssalkin.lpages.co/99bodyweightkettlebellworkouts/

We’re always told to “be ourselves”. But what happens when our own training doesn’t reflect that? You’ve gotta move the way you were made if you wanna get the gains, and the ultimate in human movement is the gait pattern.

In this episode I go into not just why the gait pattern is the ultimate in strength and health, but give you some pretty epic examples of followers and colleagues of mine who have made some pretty huge strides thanks to training their gait pattern.

My friend Edoardo – who could easily be Italy’s candidate for the Most Interesting Man in the World – joins me in this episode to talk about playing bass for Italy’s popular comedy metal band Nanowar of Steel, doing post-doctoral research in astrophysics, speaking many languages, and much, much more.

Ever wondered why kettlebells and calisthenics are the perfect combination? Well, tune in, friend, adn you will wonder no more!

And while you’re at it, here’s that super spicy link I promised you during the show: https://alekssalkin.lpages.co/99bodyweightkettlebellworkouts/

Original Strength and Calisthenics go together like love and marriage; like peanut butter and jelly; like Sonny and Cher. And yet, very few people have ever plumbed the depths of the question…

“What would happen if you made HYBRID moves of calisthenics + OS?”

Until now, that is. That is *exactly* what I explore in this solo episode.

And while you’re at it, here’s the link I mention in the show. Enjoy! https://alekssalkin.lpages.co/99bodyweightkettlebellworkouts/

If there’s one excuse everyone makes for not training, it’s a lack of time. But if you know how to leverage the little time you DO have, as Anna Dajero has, the sky is the limit.

In this interview I talk about her fascinating rise to incredible heights – both thanks to my programs and others – and what her future goals are.
