"Not necessarily for beginners"
3 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

A decent book that is broken into 3 sections of exercises; kettlebells, bodyweight, and yoga.

If like me, you have never done kettlebells or yoga before, there is plenty of useful info in here. However, the bodyweight section is far too advanced for a beginner and there is zero progression in the bodyweight exercise plans that is provided in the back of the book.

The first bodyweight plan have you start with 10 pull ups followed by 10 dragon push ups (push ups with 1 leg off the ground) followed by reverse push ups (gymnast back arching style) and so on. By the end of the first bodyweight plan, you would have done 60 full pull ups (30 minute plan), or 30 full pull ups (15 minute plan).

These are far too advanced and there is no easier variations shown in the book to help you get the strength up to do these exercises, you will need other information and training to get you to the level to do the workouts in this book.

I would only recommend this book if you are new to kettlebells and yoga, or you are already able to do pull ups with ease and advanced push ups.

Author Biography:

BEAR GRYLLS spent three years as a Trooper with 21 SAS Regiment, before breaking his back in a free-fall parachuting accident in Africa. Grylls recovered and went on to become one of the youngest climbers ever to reach the summit of Mount Everest. He first hosted the hit Discovery Channel series Man vs. Wild, which became one of the most-watched shows on the planet, reaching an estimated 1.2 billion viewers. Since then he has gone on to host more extreme adventure TV shows across more global networks than anyone else in history, including Running Wild with Bear Grylls and the Emmy Award-nominated interactive Netflix show You vs. Wild. His autobiography, Mud Sweat and Tears, spent fifteen weeks at Number 1 on the Sunday Times bestseller list and he has written over ninety books, selling in excess of nineteen million copies worldwide. He is an Honorary Colonel to the Royal Marines Commandos, the youngest ever UK Chief Scout, and the first ever Chief Ambassador to the World Scout Organization, representing a global family of some fifty million Scouts. He is married to Shara, and together they have three sons- Jesse, Marmaduke and Huckleberry.
