Even if you have no interest in increasing your military press, the concepts in this book are powerful.Not only does Kenneth break down the essentials to a perfect press, but he also provides 10 innovative drills for shattering plateaus. Whether it is simply stacking two kettlebells in one hand for manipulating the center of gravity or showing how to take advantage of hard-wired reflexes, Kenneth's pursuit of strength allows us to stand on his shoulders (pun intended). Combining science and practical application, Kenneth reveals in Perfecting the Press!principles and techniques capable of assisting you on a journey of strength. This is an intelligent journey based in science and field tested in the Iron Pit. Now read, learn, and apply. Strength is waiting for you!"â€”Brett Jones, CSCS
