Over the last few years Al Kavadlo has become known as one of the top go-to experts in the world when it comes to bodyweight training. If you want to get in great shape using nothing but chins, dips and squats then Al is your man. If you want to master advanced moves like the flag, the muscle up and the human flag, Al has you covered.
If you’ve been following my stuff for a while you know that I am a huge fan of bodyweight training and include it in all of my programs. So I was pretty excited for the chance to have Al on the podcast. Luckily he was in Santa Monica this week so we were able to do it live in studio.
