1.0 out of 5 stars Has almost nothing to do with Lacrosse., January 9, 2009
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Lacrosse Training Bible: The Complete Guide for Men and Women (Paperback)
This book is a very general exercise guide at best... and even at that there is way to much obvious information. There are pages with photos covering things like a bench press, butt kicks, crunches, pull ups,... you get the idea. The actual lacrosse info is VERY basic; ground balls, holding the crosse, passing, catching,... and the info is (in my opinion) not very good. There are also some annoying things like EVERY checking example starts with the exact same photo (they kept recycling it... you couldn't take a fresh photo sequence for each type of check?)

The book is good if you are not exactly certain how to do a push up... otherwise, don't waste your money as I did.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for instruction, December 17, 2007
This review is from: The Lacrosse Training Bible: The Complete Guide for Men and Women (Paperback)
I wanted to comment on the Lacrosse Bible. I bought the book for my children as they are both in the sport at school. The level of their knowledge of the sport has been enhanced by this book. The author has included all the drills necessary for anybody to learn the sport and excel at it. I would highly recommend this book for anybody with an interest in sports who wants an understanding behind the mechanics of this sport.

2.0 out of 5 stars Better for players than coaches, April 1, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Lacrosse Training Bible: The Complete Guide for Men and Women (Paperback)
First, let me say that this is not a bad book for players looking to design their own workout in the off season. I would give it 3 stars for that.

However, as a coach, I would have preferred to see more lacrosse-specific material--drills and techniques, coaching tips--and less about exercising and working out in general. Weight-lifting and other exercises are helpful for lacrosse players, of course, but if that's primarily what people are after, then they're better off getting a weightlifting or sports training book.
