I'll be doing a longer review on my page,.. I'm behind in writing projects, but I liked the Beast Tamer book. He's the real deal and uses lots of resources as tools in his tool box.
Using a 106 lb kettlebell for the pullup, pistol and press is not everyone's cup of tea, but some of the methods he and others used to get there are just a few more chunks of conditioning knowledge.
What I liked is that there are no smoke and mirrors [forget about DD marketing.. it's obviously Dan Kennedy on 'roids], but Andrew is kind of like Dragnet... just the facts. Plenty of training templates and drills too.

A Power Wheel by Jon Hinds is no new thing. He's marketing them through Dick's Sporting Goods along with his other inventions. I think Jon is completely overlooked as an incredible fitness coach who walks his talk.
Attaching the wheel to the feet and trying the drills is a blast. The Leg Curl/Hip Extension seems to activate the hammies very, very, well. I'd imagine this being a good tool for squatters with a weakness there, not to mention the therapeutic aspects.

The bigger wheel and quality make all the drills lots of fun. I'm looking forward to playing with this.

I was at Dicks a few years ago and the Power Wheel was priced at $29.99. I went back the next day, $59.99

Missed it.

I went on CraigsList looking for a PowerWheel. There was a phone number to call and when I reached the guy he told me he had a brand new one that he just wanted to give away to someone that would use it. When he told me where he lived, about a 2 hour drive each way, I said no thanks, as I knew I was not going to have the four hours for that errand. He asked me where I live and when I told him, he asked me to hold on. When he came back on the line he told me that his sister in law, who works at a college about 1 mile from my home, was visiting him and that she would bring it to work with her for me to pick up about 3 days later. Sometimes things just work out.

This! I learned a lot when at Jon's place and his CNT NT is the cert I am proudest of acquiring. It's been great for clients and when the hernia was at it's worse, a Godsend whereas KBs did not play well with the condition.

Plus, for me, his gym is the coolest hands down.
