the book was too general to be helpful. although "training" touched on all of the subjects in which i was interested, it provided few specific details that would help me develop my own training program. the list of possible speed drills and exercises is basically limited to one page. additionally, exercises mentioned throughout the text are often not fully described anywhere. if you are a beginner (like i am) you will need another source to tailor a personal training schedule. and if you are past the beginner stage, i do not imagine this text will offer anything in the way of new information.

The book is much too general to be very helpful. Although it touched on all of the subjects in which I was intereseted, the book provided very few specific guidelines for developing a personal training schedule. The list of possible drills and exercises for speed is limited to basically one page. Additionally, many drills mentioned throughout the text are not fully explained. If you are a beginner (like I am) you will need another source to help build a personal program. You might as well avoid this book altogether. And if you are past the beginner stage, I do not imagine this text will offer much new information.
