Praise for Pavel Tsatsouline and for
the First Edition of Beyond Crunches
"Thank you for the great job you did in your presentation (on abdominal
training) at the Arnold Fitness EXPO Seminar. We received uniformly
favorable comments concerning the quality of your instruction and the content
of your message. As you know the fitness enthusiasts we attract to our seminars
are very knowledgeable individuals. Hence, their supportive feedback
concerning you and your presentation is of special significance."—James J.
Lorimer, Schwarzenegger/Lorimer Productions
"The Pavelizer is the rage among the iron elite."—Marty Gallagher, World
Masters Powerlifting Champion, WashingtonPost.com
"I am writing on behalf of the entire Board of Directors of the Texas
Tactical Police Officers Association to express our sincere gratitude to you for
helping with our Conference 2000. We trained 536 officers from 129 agencies.
Your portion of the instruction was a huge success. All of the student critiques
were very complimentary. As a team leader with the Houston Police
Department SWAT team, I am constantly looking for new ways to improve my
physical performance. According to the student comments, you have truly
introduced a new and revolutionary fitness program to our members.
In particular, our members commented on your common sense, practical
exercises that utilize a minimum amount of equipment to achieve the very goals
that other instructors require thousands of dollars of equipment to achieve.
These techniques will help each officer reach new levels of fitness and ultimately
improve their ability to protect the communities they serve.It is our mission to
provide the very best training available, anywhere. Your efforts helped make that
possible. "—M.L. "Sandy" Wall, Training Advisor, TTPOZ

"I have seen many abdominal routines in the last 25 years and the Beyond
Crunches program is the best yet." —Steve Maxwell, M.Sc., Senior World
Brazilian Jujitsu Champion
"As a chiropractic physician, I see the deleterious effects of a weak torso on the
lower back. Weak abs lead to years of back pain and dysfunction. As a world
record holding powerlifter, I know the importance of strong abs on maximum
power performance. Beyond Crunches is THE text and authority on ab/trunk
stability."—Dr. Fred Clary, National Powerlifting Champion and World
Record Holder
"I learned a lot from Pavel's books and video, and plan to use many of his
ideas in my own workouts, especially the nontraditional ab exercises described
in Beyond Crunches."—Clarence Bass, Most Muscular Man, Mr. U.S.A, Past
40, author of Ripped 1, 2 & 3 and Lean for Life
"Congratulations on your book Beyond Crunches. I found several of the
insights and expressions to be very interesting and thought provoking
(The Ab Pavelizer is just one). I will be implementing some of them into my
own abdominal workout schedules."—Dennis B. Weiss, author of Mass!, Raw
Muscle & Anabolic Muscle Mass
"Expect to find some of the most grueling stomach-busters that you have ever
experienced—Tsatsouline advocates low-repetition intensity over high-repetition
"burn" exercises, and introduces us to the Ab Pavelizer, a machine of his own
invention that allows for perfect sit-ups. Beyond Crunches has many new and
challenging drills, making this a great manual for anyone who needs some
variety in their workout routine. Included is the Flag, Bruce Lee's favorite
abdominal exercise."—Brendan J. LaSalle, Amazon.com
"As someone who has been crippled twice by injuries to my spine and had to
rebuild my body from scratch twice, I have two things to say: 1) serious
abdominal conditioning is *mandatory* for anyone with back pain and anyone
who intends to push their body in sport or martial arts and 2) Pavel's book is,
by far, the best book I've seen on this vitally important and neglected subject."
—Ken McCarthy, New York

"This book took me from having a back that everyone told me was too weak
to ever do heavy lifting and that was in almost constant pain to no back pain
and new PR's in the deadlift and Squat. Pavel's ab exercises are the stuff
champions are made of. Clear, concise directions and radical new ideas make
this book well worth the money spent. And it's for every trainee with a desire to
succeed. I've heard that you must already be very advanced to begin the
exercises in this book, but I recently began training my 50 year old father-in-law
using these techniques and after about a month he was doing Janda situps with
the best of them. Not to mention he no longer complains of back pain and has
better posture. Get this book and throw out all of your others on abs!"
—Chris Dudzik, Hollister, CA.
"Pavel delivers once again! This book details the mechanics of abdominal and
oblique development in an easy to understand, user-friendly format. Learn to
either build up your midsection, tone it up, get a prominent six-pack, and/or
increase your punching and throwing power by learning to integrate your
powerful midsection! There is one particular exercise that I found to be super
productive in adding to punching power, and this is the only book that has it...
It is extremely simple and easy to understand. Pavel explains how to protect
your spine and perform the "perfect" situp. All in all a great book by a great
author, definitely a must-have for any fighter and lifter. My punching power
and deadlifting strength went up very quickly on this program and I am very
pleased."— Sean Williams, Long Beach, NY
"I've bought the TV advertised training devices and a bundle of ab books—
tried them all. But, doing the routines Pavel Tsatsouline presents in this book is
the way I have achieved solid abs! Pavel offers a great deal of knowledge in an
easy to digest manner. His writing, while colloquial, is founded in research and
deep understanding of physiology and kinesthetics. I highly recommend this
book."— Linda Crawford, Minnesota State Masters Powerlifting Champion
and Record Holder, Minneapolis, MN
