In case you wonder, I only laugh at sarcastic jokes. Like most collections of essays, they are hit and miss. Some are great, some are just Rip being Rip. But don't underestimate him or this book. A lot to be learned here. Mark Rippetoe has an entertaining communication style and great attention to detail in how the body should correctly move during strength training.
If you're on the fence about getting this book, watch some of his YouTube videos and you'll see the value. Mark Rippetoe has a huge knowledge base and decades of practical experience. Well worth the purchase! Mark is able to clearly illustrate good form and how strength improves almost every aspect of life. Rippetoe's wit and wisdom make this an easy and interesting listen. Informative and motivational.
Mark does a good job of presenting the case for strength training, calling out irresponsible science and medical experts overstepping the bounds of their knowledge along the way. If you've ever had a friend tell you that squats hurt your knees, or a parent tell you that lifting stunts your growth, then this book is for you. When you hear it you'll instantly know how important the squat is and how close Mark Rippetoe can impersonate Tim Curry.
I am a huge supporter of this man and his simple system of strength training. This book is a look into the mind of the Rippetoe, and I would consider this a condensed version of his radio show. Definitely need more people with this mentality around. Thank you. Strong content as usual. Covers lots of typical Rip topics - nothing that I haven't heard before, just good solid common sense.
Strength making everything better. Barbells are best. Rips narration makes what would be slightly dry topics very entertaining. Another review claims that Rip says that olympic weightlifting and rugby don't use barbell training. This isn't what he says. Just that he believes that they are not emphasised enough.
It should be noted this was written in audio produced was recorded much later and the critical review was written in Love all of Marks books. Just superb and so educational. He has a knack of teaching with such precision and leaves no stone unturned. He has inspired me and more importantly my form is superb due to his teaching. This has enabled me to lift heavy yet safely. Thanks Mark you are the best. Can highly recommend if you're interested in strength and fitness.
No punches pulled in this book. Mark Rippetoe at his finest. Clear, concise, and valuable advice throughout. Simple but effective, backed by research and logic. Mark shows his age a lot in this book. Claiming sports like Rugby and Olympic Weightlifting don't incorporate strength training at the elite level which is nonsense. In this day and age almost all sports include barbell training as part of their strength and conditioning programmes. Repeats himself constantly which shows the book really doesn't't have that much content.
Unless you are absolutely new to strength training I would not recommend this book. Even then you'd be better off reading starting strength. Documentos semelhantes a Starting-Strength. Zafar Hussain.

Guideline for preparing comprehensive extension of time EoT claim. Try approaching the speed of light sometime. Training is no different. At first progress comes fast, easy, and cheap. If you do it correctly. The most common way to screw this up is to start at the end, where things are complex, costly, and difficult.
Novices, having no history of adaptation to exercise, can get big and strong very quickly, while advanced trainees, having already gotten big and strong, get bigger and stronger very slowly. Which sounds like the most fun?
The primary characteristic of effective novice training programs is that they are very simple. Look upon this as a blessing. The later phases of training are most assuredly not simple, so take it while you can get it.
The variables of training — exercise selection, workout frequency, volume, and intensity — are all as uncomplicated as they can be made.
Exercise selection is the most objectionable feature of the correctly designed novice program — there are only about 7 exercises you need to do for several months, and this seems to piss people off pretty bad.
Increasing your strength by increasing the load is what makes you strong, and the process of getting strong enough to need to grow is what makes you big. Programs that use different single-joint isolation exercises never work for novices, as you also may have noticed, because single joint exercises do not load the whole system like the squat, press, and deadlift do.
They fail to elicit a sufficient hormonal response to cause the system-wide change getting big and strong requires. Training frequency for an effective novice program is based on the rate at which a novice recovers from a workout.
More frequency has proven to be too much training and not enough recovery, while less frequency is not enough to make the best use of your potential to get big and strong as fast as possible. The idea is to train, rest 48 hours, train again, rest 48 hours, and train again, this time resting 72 hours so that any residual lack of recovery is dealt with during the extra day. Thankfully, I know.
There are various forms of this program in print, but they all are basically the same. It is simple, short, and composed entirely of basic barbell and multi-joint exercises. Workout A is: the squat done for 3 sets of 5 reps across the same weight done for multiple sets always after the warmup, the press for 3 sets of 5 across, the deadlift for one heavy set of 5, and 3 sets of chinups to failure each set with 5 minutes rest between the sets.
The deadlift uses only ONE heavy set. Sets-across deadlifts do not work, because for the deadlift more is not better. Trust me on this. Workout B is: Squat 3 sets of 5 across again, bench press 3 sets of 5 across, and power clean 5 sets of 3 across. Cleans are not hard to recover from like deadlifts, and triples are done instead of fives so that accumulating fatigue does not interfere with good technique.
Rows are not a substitute, and power cleans are not hard to learn, so make up your mind to learn them even if you think it will be hard. You need to get used to doing hard stuff anyway. Good for the soul. These two statements would seem to be at odds. And that would be better than all these methods, for you. Join Date Mar Posts Join Date Jun Posts 1, Originally Posted by Soule.
