    The best part about this book is it covers a ridiculous amount of content in an unbelievably clear way. You can literally flick through the book and take in loads of new information - I also have the Warm Up book and the author puts everything together in a way that makes the information incredibly easy to take in.

    I have bought a few books on resistance training recently and I am really impressed with the approach this book takes. The info on programming is great and the detail on all of the exercises (over 100) is brilliant.

    If you want to learn how to train in a gym, this is definitely the go-to book.
