Traditional stretching programs weaken you — but stop stretching altogether and you’ll doom yourself to injuries and mediocrity!
“Strength Stretching is a virtual must for the powerlifter, novice or advanced. Our bodies change as our body mass increases, mostly unnoticed until lack of mobility and flexibility causes reduced performance, or worse injury.
Pavel has addressed these issues with time proven methods from the former USSR. Strength Stretching has helped Westside Barbell enormously and I know it will help everyone who is in powerlifting at any stage of the game." —LOUIE SIMMONS, Westside Barbell
The iron elite knows that ‘being tight’ is critical to making that big lift. At the same time you can’t put up a big squat, bench press, or deadlift without having just the right amount of flexibility and only in the right places. A paradox.
Ignore stretching altogether — and lose power to the joints that ‘don’t bend easy’. Do stretches designed for fighters or other athletes — and toss away strength by the bucket… because you’ll lose your crucial ‘tightness’. Either way, a dead end.
Not any more. Enter Strength Stretching by Pavel, the only flexibility program custom designed to up your squat, up your bench, up your dead!
“Pavel is a fitness visionary. He has been teaching people about whole body functional training when sports scientists and exercise leaders were emphasizing aerobics and muscle isolation bodybuilding techniques. He formulated his methods by combining training principles developed by Soviet and eastern European coaches and scientists, worldwide sports medicine research, and personal experience. His books and DVDs will help athletes increase power, functional flexibility, and neuromuscular control, while minimizing the risk of injury. Coaches, athletes, and sports scientists will benefit from his unique training courses.”
