“Paul Wade's section on developing the sides of the body in Convict
Conditioning 2 is brilliant. Hardstyle!”
—Pavel Tsatsouline, author of The Naked Warrior

“The overriding principle of Convict Conditioning 2 is ‘little equipment-big
rewards’. For the athlete in the throwing and fighting arts, the section on
Lateral Chain Training, Capturing the Flag, is a unique and perhaps singular
approach to training the obliques and the whole family of side muscles. This
section stood out to me as ground breaking and well worth the time and
energy by anyone to review and attempt to complete. Literally, this is a new
approach to lateral chain training that is well beyond sidebends and suitcase
deadlifts.
The author’s review of passive stretching reflects the experience of many of
us in the field. But, his solution might be the reason I am going to recommend
this work for everyone: The Trifecta. This section covers what the author calls
The Functional Triad and gives a series of simple progressions to three holds
that promise to oil your joints. It's yoga for the strength athlete and supports
the material one would find, for example, in Pavel’s Loaded Stretching.
I didn't expect to like this book, but I come away from it practically insisting
that everyone read it. It is a strongman book mixed with yoga mixed with
street smarts. I wanted to hate it, but I love it.”
—Dan John, author of Don’t Let Go and co-author of Easy Strength
