Here's a great strength and conditioning article I found over at DragonDoor.com:
"Sushi, Sake, Karate, and Kettlebells - by Gary Music, RKC
Karate and Kettlebells are a perfect match, and if you follow the RKC doctrine of Hardstyle the two arts are a perfect match. Just like sushi goes with sake, kettlebells and karate make an unstoppable combination for fitness, strength, speed, power and tournament skill......
...Pavel likes to say that the kettlebell swing is as close as you can get to fighting without a fight. Why does the swing help you spar? The swing builds explosive power and endurance while simultaneously improving the tense-relax (contract & expand) skills used by highly skilled fighters."
Excellent stuff. Make sure you check it out.
Train Hard,
Josh Skinner

Agreed. I'm a huge fan of Pavel's work.
