Review # 1 was written on 2018-08-13 00:00:00 Jerry Tresch A MUST READ FOR THE STRENGTH COACH!—this is the fundamental text to educating the strength coach in designing and delivering a program. Wins: complete theory and practice, pictures, and examples. The program design chapter reviews and refreshes how to build the program all the way from beginning with a needs analysis to considering the individual status; then to making the periodization schedule and finally adding loading schemes. It is a must in the coach's early education but its value is most tremendously imparted in the middle (and throughout) a coach’s career. As we gain experience and meet athletes with contingent needs, our coaching becomes automatic. We trust our gut feeling. But at the same time, experience here becomes a threatening dogma that makes us forget the basics. The careful planning—a result of us being generally unsure—doesn't happen as much anymore. Open this book when you are here and use this clear roadmap. The impressive editing and great chapter contributions from the authors will always inject the basics, the non-negotiable of strength design. Why I am reluctant to give this book 5 stars is because of its dryness (duh, it’s a textbook). It could have included case studies to demonstrate the principles further. In future studying, I will review the principles here in conjunction with my Routledge handbooks and texts: they add great detail on the practitioner side of things. in how to be more particular in the needs analysis). For example, those texts illustrate how to be more particular in the needs analysis. They look at weak and strong athletes and suggest using the DIS test to identify what comes later, a strength block or an explosive strength block. These true examples would only have helped the practitioner as it represents actual decision-making in accordance with fundamental principles. But one thing at a time—this is already a great achievement that comprehensively marks all the must-knows—the know-hows can grow from acknowledging all that is written in this book.

Review # 2 was written on 2018-04-08 00:00:00 Marian Guglielmoni Very few books do a good job of explaining weight training and the hormonal impacts it has. This is well-cited and you can tell most of it was written by and for practitioners rather than Ph.D's who list the 11 exercises you should NEVER do or write some quirky program all about training your right brain and your left brain. This is a good reference to have on the shelf.
