Bill is a hard training 55-year-old who has been using Pavel's methods for fifteen-plus years – meaning since the days of the MILO article. A long-time martial artist, Bill discovered kettlebells when he was training BJJ at Steve Maxwell's gym in Philadelphia. He went on to help develop the TSC, train Navy SEALS with Pavel, and the crew and help teach the Naked Warrior seminar (where he knocked off a pull-up with 2x32kg strapped around his waist after an abdominal raking from Pavel).
Now Bill trains himself and his two sons, five and eight, in the basement gym – complete with courage corner, pull-up bars and barbells - and prays that the hotel gyms he is stuck with half the time have a pull-up bar. His oldest has recently taken up karate, carrying on the family tradition.
It's been over a decade since I first discovered Pavel. The effect of Pavel's teachings on my training has been profound—and I have never trained the same since finding his work.
