Good

Good for Fitness freaks and who want to know the theory of S nd C... Pratical things are not there... Like some CD or link or like that

Got this book for a very good price.

Awesome book for strength and conditioning.

I got book in a great condition. Good packaging. Original book. I also got a surprise gift(Rich Dad and Poor Dad) along with this book. Thank u to the seller. I have not read book so cannot review about it.

This book goes very deep into basics and then has also practical session for easy following - now it is up to me to use the information and convert into skills!!

Spedizione puntuale e libro arrivato in condizioni perfette. Per quanto riguarda i contenuti, sapevo di fare centro con questo acquisto. Lo ritengo un "must have" per chi voglia avere delle solide basi per quanto riguarda l'allenamento con i pesi e il condizionamento. Nient'altro da aggiungere. 5 stelle meritatissime

This book is very dense and I recommend that you purchase a few other things to accompany it first, one being "Science and Practice of Strength Training, Second Edition". That being said, I still very much like this book. Coming from a background as a college athlete at a major division I program, I was exposed to many of the practices mentioned in this text and can appreciate the acknowledgement of the mental side of performance. The authors attempt to spare no details in terms of they covered a lot about the big things in training, periodization, exercise selection and some basic biology. The one area that left me wanting more was the chapters on periodization. I would have like to see an example of different approaches, ex. more of a side by side comparison of the linear and nonlinear programming mentioned and why things in the individual programs might be less than optimal. There are however entire books about the subject so I can't complain! If you buy this book, you're more looking for science and being able to break down programs and learn what's working well in them. If you're looking for specific programs for your athletes or sample programs you might want to reconsider. I will say that after I've read through this a couple of times I am more able to recognize that many programs can be constructed very well and this book just lets you know a little more about which ones have more good things than the others. If you ever read another "fitness article" your bs meter will quickly be able to detect quality

Great book with some shortcomings (no musculoskeletal anatomy review - like major muscle groups and joints anatomy). Otherwise - a great read, I just passed my CSCS exam and it's mostly based on it. Videos are helpful too. Also, Cunningham formula is incorrect - check it online.

I paid £1250 for a Level 2 and Level 3 Personal Training Course (with an independent company), and I was really struggling to understand the course material, to the point of frustration. I purchased this book and everything is explained in such a great way that I can understand everything. I have learnt more about my course material from this book that from the actual course material! The book is fantastic, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is seeking to learn more!
