New Perspectives
I recently acquired this excellent resource by Lou Schuler and Alwyn Cosgrove, and I give it my highest marks. If I were to pen a manual for weight training, it would be very similar to this one. It not only provides solid, principled instruction; it presents balanced and new perspectives. It defines priorities and absolutely undermines many of the gym myths that I still observe on a daily basis.
Despite being targeted at the layperson, I benefitted from this book as a trainer. It is always beneficial to rehearse the fundamentals and learn how top professionals teach and view the art of lifting. I think one the obvious strengths of this work is that it is clear and methodical. The authors don’t dumb down their knowledge but rather present it in context with thorough description.
If you are interested in advancing your understanding of resistance training and tweaking your perception of exercise, I definitely recommend this one. Enjoy!
