The Beginning of an Educational Journey 
Before this book, I should not have been allowed to bear the title of Certified Personal Trainer. This book, though I read it years ago, opened my eyes to what training should be. It's applicability to both athletes and the general population is significantly high and it truly provides a foundation needed to build an education on. It's too bad that I did not have this book during my playing career, or maybe I would still be playing the sport I love to this today. Every trainer should be required to read and apply the principles taught in this book... their clients will thank them.
Gets Results
I have gotten stronger, faster, and ripped on this system while maintaining a good clean nutrition program.
Solid Book
Great workouts! I personally prefer when a workout plan is spelled out for me; this book delivers.

One of the nation?s elite strength and conditioning coaches presents a unique training program designed to help men achieve functional strength and muscular balance throughout their bodies
For decades, the conventional measure of an individual?s strength was the amount of weight he could bench press. Now, that measure is being challenged by expert trainers like Robert dos Remedios who argue that the variety of movement patterns used in functional training is the real key to getting bigger, stronger, and more powerful. In Men?s Health Book of Strength, this acclaimed collegiate strength and conditioning coach describes in detail the methods he has used to develop hundreds of Division I scholarship athletes, including several current NFL players.
The key features that make this book a standout in the fitness field include:
? exercises geared toward functional strength that can be utilized in real-world situations, from playing sports to lifting furniture
? training sessions that are short, intense, and highly effective
? compound, multijoint exercises that replace the less-effective isolation exercises found in many fitness books
? no-nonsense dietary information utilizing a new and innovative food pyramid developed by the UCLA Center for Human Nutrition that will optimize strength gains, recovery, and physical progress
