Oooo! It's even shot at Alcatraz!

 The Prison Pushup Series

Regular readers of this site know that it's no secret how much I love the Convict Conditioning series of books - so I really couldn't wait to get my hands on the two new (there will eventually be a total of SIX!) DVD and Manual sets ASAP!!!  My full reviews are on the Dragon Door site, so scroll down on that product page and see what I had to say about them (Spoiler alert: THEY RULE!)

Amazon Product ID: 

I love this stupid little thing.  It even makes really good espresso grounds.   The hand crank means your ears are never assaulted by that terrible high pitched grinding whine of a coffee grinder first thing in the morning.  Sit there and half-asleep turn the crank slowly and there's barely a sound at all as the beans are precisely crushed between the ceramic grooved disks.  Turn, turn, crunch, crunch.  Not so bad.   Or maybe you don't have time for that - you can grind the beans the night before and unscrew the grinder top, replace with the screw-on cover and place in the refrigerator.   I did that about 10 minutes ago in preparation for a big Monday.

Only complaint - sometimes the knurled knob at the top needs to be tightened after a grinding session.  No big deal.   Good little machine - and unlike unsightly countertop electric models - incredibly easy to store.   No electricity required!
