Kettlebell Hunter's Squat Cross Body Deadlift

[Michael]

I know some guys like different stuff like this. I always liked the suitcase deadlift.

I've done quite a bit of hunting and I cannot recall ever having to pick up something that way while doing it.

Probably not nearly as much as you, but would have to agree.  And I think we would have had our ___es handed to us if we'd done something like that with a weapon or ruck in the military.

I don't know why he called it that. I use to have a DVD that Pavel made about bullet proofing Your body. One of the exercises in it was a twisting deadlift with a light KB. I believe it was 18lbs. He said he got the exercise from a hockey player. Another thing he said which I agree with was unlike in a weight room in real life You will not always be able pick stuff in perfect form.

Don't get me wrong now. I like Mark Wildman and some of the info he puts out. That may very well be a way to get more out of a light KB if that is all you have, but it's a trick and not an exercise or a lift. Also, the word hunter in the name is simply how "combat" or "tactical" is added to many things to make them sound more relevant and/or cool.

Yeah I agree Deuce and I get it. I didn't really like the twisting one at the end. I got decent size KBs for suitcase Deadlifts especially if I keep good form and tension. Sort of like a suitcase carry standing still.

They other deadlift was pretty much a suitcase lunge. I like doing reverse lunges holding the KB in a suitcase, racked, or overhead position.

"Bullet proofing your body" , Pavels next dvd will show you how to develop traps into nuclear bunkers either side of your body.

Yeah, this guy's target audience is newbies or fawning fan boys, not those who are experienced at exercise.

I think that, unfortunately, there will be people who will injure themselves trying to duplicate this poser's circus tricks.
