Steve Maxwell: Freedom in a Westfalia

Steve Maxwell is a personal trainer who has worked with professional athletes, from fighters to baseball players. He is known for being one of the first trainers to introduce kettlebells to the Western world, as well as many other unorthodox tools like club bells. 

He advocates a complete body workout over isolation exercises, body maintenance over pure athletic performance, and overall well-being over exercise for the sake of exercise. 

In this interview we talk about his beginnings in the fitness industry, his minimalist lifestyle, self discipline, using exercise as meditation, and how faces his fears and doubts. 

If you'd like to find out more information about him, you can find his exercise DVD's and blog here.

Hope you guys enjoy.
