Synopsis

This guide, written by an internationally recognized authority on the sport, is the definitive resource for heavy weight training to build body strength and bulk or improve performance in a wide range of other sports. Weight lifting is among the most popular exercises among the forty-two million health club members in the United States, but there is a serious lack of supervision and good instruction, which is extremely dangerous to the user and a liability to gym owners. Author Geoffrey K. Platt is the only person sanctioned by the international Register of Exercise Professionals to design and run courses in the weight training category. His book is aimed at both professional fitness instructors and motivated enthusiasts, and is filled with information, illustrations, tips, strategies, and training plans, covering everything you need to know to lift weights safely and effectively.
