Great - all in one

This audio really dives deep into barbell training from a scientific perspective. I loved all the science that the author included, and it went beyond what you can find online. My favorite part was the section that compared strength training and conditioning and the importance of both—overall a joy to listen to.

Great info!

I found this book to be super helpful! As a newbie to barbell training the book offered a lot of good tips on different types of workouts, all in easy to understand, non-technical language. The book also goes into some other aspects of training that I hadn’t really considered including mindset, goal-setting, and journaling your workouts. Definitely recommend!

Perfect For Beginners and Intermediate Lifters!

I found this book very useful. You can't just go into the gym without a plan. You sure as hell can't have results without a proper mindset and form. The way you eat also plays a key factor in your gym goals. This book helped me with all of these things and more.

Great for just starting your barbell journey!

As someone who loves working out, this book was an excellent refresher on how to go about doing so. The body Ankara,y was a great chapter bs understanding you body and how to build it correctly is crucial to prevent injury. However, I disagree with the statement that high oil products such as chips, fried foods, pastries, margarine and butter should be consumed. These foods should be avoided when lifting or doing anything to optimize your health. Healthy fats such as avocados and nuts is a better alternative. The chapter on core exercises is necessary bc you need to get the foundation right in order to build on it! Great listen!

Get stronger...safely

Injuries are far too common when starting a new workout regimen and safety should be stressed as much as it is in this book. I love how the book started out discussing mindset and then transitioned into other critical areas to set the stage for barbell training. The workouts seem very doable and I'm excited to get started!
