This review is from: Powerlifting for Men and Women: How to Lift Like a Champion (Paperback)
A truly horrible book filled with equally horrid information.
It provides a simple and poorly set out cookie cutter training program that makes no sense at all. Squat Mon, Bench Tue (with stiff legged deadlift), Deadlift on Wed. For a meet on Sat. Which is fine if there is a meet on Sat but why train that way during the year? After stating that women gain better strength by using high reps in the bench, he then states that most women will not improve their bench by more than 5-10 lbs per year. Which is probably true if they are following the terrible advice in this book.

This review is from: Powerlifting for Men and Women: How to Lift Like a Champion (Paperback)
I was disappointd with this book. It should be re-titled to "Powerlifting for Boys and Girls" because the information in the book is completely irrelevant for adults. In addition, this book is useless for anyone who already participates in the sport of powerlifting (regardless of age).
