As you probably know if you tried to buy the Men’s Health Book of Power Training for someone over the holidays the book is sold out all over the place (I haven’t been able to get another copy and I wrote a chapter in the book!). It is also getter great reviews. Here’s one from the LA Times from mid December.
“One warning: Only those serious about starting or improving their training programs need crack open this tome, written by the director of speed, strength and conditioning at College of the Canyons in Santa Clarita.
Dos Remedios begins with a rundown of the training program and a list of training tips, then explains the specific exercises, each with photos and detailed instructions. Workouts are divided into explosive exercises, knee-dominant exercises, hip-dominant exercises, vertical and horizontal push exercises, and all the core workouts a person could want. The book is rounded out with some nutritional information, cardio strength exercises and detailed week-by-week training programs. Although some exercises require minimal equipment, such as dumbbells, more serious equipment is necessary to achieve good results.”
