Review
As a high school coach for a low socioeconomic area in San Antonio, Texas, I have found your book to be the perfect tool to instruct students about proper weight training in soccer. My students are making excellent progress. --Coach Garcia

I play traveling and high school soccer. My team has won two out of three tournaments so far this season, and we won TRAC last year. This year we are the most likely team to win valley. Our record is 14-0-4. The Ultimate Guide to Weight Training for Soccer has helped me so much. I have gotten faster, stronger, and I have gotten more confident because of this. In soccer you need to be mentally and physically strong, and your book really helped me get to the level I needed in order to make varsity as a freshman. Thank you! --Anisa G

5.0 out of 5 stars Money Well Spent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, January 15, 2004

By	Evan M Lison (Columbia, MD) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Ultimate Guide to Weight Training for Soccer (The Ultimate Guide to Weight Training for Sports, 24) (The Ultimate Guide to Weight Training for Sports, ... Guide to Weight Training for Sports, 24) (Paperback)

I was recommended this book from a friend of mine who is also a soccer nut like myself. I found that this book clearly outlines how the individual player can exponentially increase their level of effectiveness on the pitch. Besides improving my general performance on the field by increasing my level of stamina, strength, and flexibility, I found that this book serves as a very good starting points for players of all abilities and ages.

This book provides advice narrowly tailored towards soccer players. Where other books fail to provide advice about how one can prevent injures and make training fun, this book undoubtedly succeeds!!! Overall, a great buy.

5.0 out of 5 stars New Edition is Way Better, January 22, 2006

By	Daniel Stern "Daniel" (New York) - See all my reviews

I'm a multi sport athlete who trains all year round regardless of what sport I play. I bought a few of these Ultimate Guide to Weight Training books, and they definitely helped me train specifically for the different sports that I play. Then about a year later I received an email from amazon that there was a new edition out. These upgraded editions are even better than the originals, with more articles and a lot more sport-specific information. I would definitely recommend this series to anyone who plays a lot of sports or wants to specifically focus on training for one sport in particular.
