31 May Fabio Zonin And Paolo Evangelista – The Biomechanics Of Powerlifting
(#211) In a very unique English-Italian interview, Fabio Zonin and Paolo Evangelista, join me this week to discuss what’s been called “the best biomechanics book for powerlifters ever written.”
“DCSS, Powerlifting for Power Lifters” is a cutting-edge biomechanics and strength training book written by engineer and Italian strength athlete, Paolo Evangelista.
This interview is unlike anything else we’ve ever done on the show, as the episode is in both English and Italian.
Fabio (StrongFirst Master Instructor) translates for Paolo to discuss his brilliant work and ideas on the biomechanics of strength training.
Here’s what you’ll learn about this week:

Obrigado
Would you like to know when you will have it in another language? Like English or even translation into other languages? Will they sell only print, or will it be digital?
Thank you.
