Strong Enough? : Thoughts from Thirty Years of Barbell Training

Strong Enough? : Thoughts from Thirty Years of Barbell Training
There are lots of things about weight training in general and barbell exercise in particular that can only be learned by spending way too many hours in the gym. And honestly, unless you are a gym owner, this is a really weird way to spend 75 hours a week. Mark Rippetoe has been in the fitness industry since 1978 and has owned a black-iron gym since 1984. He knows things about lifting weights and training for performance that most other coaches and professionals have never had a chance to learn. This book of essays offers a glimpse into the depths of experience made possible through many years under the bar, and many more years spent helping others under the bar.

The book is a tribute to barbell training. It deals with technical and practical aspects of barbell training plus general principles for strength training.

Humorous, well-written, easy to read and plenty of useful advice. For a more in-depth and very thorough description of the technical aspects of basic barbell training, however, look at Starting Strength/Starting Strength 2nd Edition by the same author.
Great book

Great leisurely reading, containing all the wit and charisma you'd expect from Coach Rip, written in a conversational style.

This is NOT a text-book on strength training. Get Starting Strength or Practical Programming for that.
