A Review of Recovery & Regeneration



Just today I received notice of the first review of my new DVD Recovery & Regeneration: Self-Massage Techniques. The review was done by RKC (Russian Kettlebell Certified) instructor

Rannoch Donald from Scottland. To read the entire review, go to Ronnach's excellent blog, Simple Strength:



Here's a bit of what he said about the DVD's:

"I don't think Keats will mind if I say, right off the bat, he's not going to win any Oscars for make-up and lighting. But no-one watches instructionals for the production values. We want content - and this is where "Recovery & Regeneration" delivers completely.

"Recovery & Regeneration" comprises 2 discs.

Disc 1 covers instruction of specific techniques. Keats doesn't waste any time. After a brief but informative discussion on the benefits of self massage and the tools available we are introduced to a series of progressive drills using a foam roller. These include postural, perpendicular, torso and leg applications. Also included on disc 1 are tennis ball moves for plantar fascia and some alternative self massage methods. The disc concludes with a stretching sequence. Coach Keats presentation is clear and unambiguous and I found myself eager to get to disc 2 where the fun begins.

Disc 2 covers pre and post workout self massage sequences. Another brief introduction and we move into the pre-workout sequence. This runs for about 12 minutes and employs the drills outlined in disc one. Keats has three participants and corrects form as they go, very useful. After a couple of runs you would certainly feel comfortable using these drills and perhaps focusing on the areas that need some extra TLC.The post work-out section is of similar duration and follows a similar format. Again, after a few run throughs I'd feel confident to make these drills my own. Disc 2 concludes with a static stretching routine."

Rannoch concluded with the following statement:

"I should add, in the spirit of disclosure, I ordered this DVD direct from Coach Keats, paid in full and it was worth every penny! "

If you haven't picked up your copy of Recovery & Regneration you may do so off my site:


The price for the 2 DVD's is only $39.95!
