Starting Strength has been called the most efficient and most useful of fitness books. The second one edition, Starting Strength: Basic Barbell Training, has sold over 80,000 copies in a competitive global market for fitness education. In conjunction with Practical Programming for Strength Training 2nd Edition, they form a simple, logical, and practical approach to strength training. Now, after four more years of testing and adjustment with thousands of athletes in seminars everywhere the country, this third edition expands and improves on the previous teaching methods and biomechanical analysis. No other book on barbell training ever written provides the detailed instruction on every aspect of the basic barbell exercises found in SS:BBT3. And even as the methods for implementing barbell training detailed in the book are primarily aimed at young athletes, they’ve been successfully applied to everyone: young and old, male and female, fit and flabby, sick and healthy, weak and already strong. Many people everywhere the world have used the simple biological principle of stress/recovery/adaptation on which this method is based to make stronger their performance, their appearance, and their quality of life.
