Training & Diet Reference Materials...

I often get asked about different training methods I use and where one might find good information on my diet or different diets available. So I decided to put together a list. It has been somewhat updated since my last post on this subject.


Training Books:

The Big Book of Clubbell Training - Clubbell® Training provides a unique blend of functional, full-range, three-dimensional muscular development that stands in stark contrast to the problematic limitations of conventional two-dimensional linear training. Practicing this system revitalizes, reenergizes and reorganizes every unused and overabused cell in your body from head to toe, core to periphery, and bones to skin. https://rmaxinternational.3dcartstores.com/The-Big-Book-of-Clubbell-Training_p_52-154.html154.html)

Muscle Logic - Trainers and Olympic athletes agree that Escalating Density Training (EDT) really works. Now everyone who works out can learn how to benefit from this superbly effective, time-efficient system. (http://www.amazon.com/Muscle-Logic-Escalating-Density-Training/dp/1594860831)


Enter The Kettlebell - “Pavel’s Kettlebell Training System—The Shortcut To Extreme Strength and Elite Conditioning. Guaranteed.” (http://www.dragondoor.com/b33.html?affid={subid})

Viking Warrior Conditioning - The Scientific Approach to Forging a Heart of Elastic Steel: An Application of The Theory Behind Proper VO2max Training - (http://www.dragondoor.com/b39.html?affid={subid})



Diet Books:

Men's Health TNT Diet - The Explosive New Plan to Blast Fat, Build Muscle, and Get Healthy in 12 Weeks (http://www.amazon.com/Mens-Health-TNT-Diet-Explosive/dp/1594869766/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1238100855&sr=1-1)


Better Than Steroids - The meat of the book is the eating plans. I have reviewed the top four eating plans for guaranteed success. They come with detailed instructions on how they work, when they work best, and how to design one for yourself. From leaning up to bulking up, these are the eating plans that work. They teach you how to use the most powerful drug out there, food, to your advantage. I say it all the time, "Anyone can exercise, but only the ones who know HOW to eat make improvements!" (http://www.amazon.com/Better-Than-Steroids-Warren-Willey/dp/1425103391/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1238100970&sr=1-1)

I have the clubbell training book. It's a decent source of info but there is too much self promotion and boasting in it for my taste.

Boris,

Agreed but it is a nice source of information. I actually like the previous edition -

Clubbell Training for Circular Strength: An Ancient Tool for the Modern Athlete but it is pretty expensive.

I've never read that one although I do have the 1st DVD about the clubs which i believe is based of the same material.

There is a lot of good info in the book, you just have to first get at it.

I have to admit I am not a fan of Sonnons writing style, very over the top and convoluted.
