  • How did the oldtimers train with Kettlebells?
  • How did the oldtimers train with Kettlebells?

    The answer might surprise you.

    In his book The Textbook of Weightlifting, Arthur Saxon lists a few of the different exercises he used: the crucifix, one arm press, and several grip and forearm exercises.

    Of course, kettlebells also worked pretty well for Combination feats just like this one. (I think that's Kurt Saxon being pressed overhead.)
