New blog post: On Kettlebells and Tire Flips: Or When Good Things Go Fad

We are sending to you this information because you have subscribed
to Stadion Publishing Company's e-mail list.

There is a new post in my blog at http://www.tomkurz.com

Here is a short excerpt from that post:

“A good idea can be turned into a fad by mindless followers.
Mindful people use whatever tools they come across to their best
advantage because they understand each tool's function and use it
accordingly. Fad followers adopt a tool not because it is
appropriate for them but because others are using it.

“An example: A strength coach who trains both American football
players and combat athletes (mostly wrestlers) has them work with a
big tire. They laboriously lift the tire, then flip it, then slowly
lift it again . . .”

Best regards,

Thomas Kurz
