Men's Health Power Training: Build Bigger, Stronger Muscles with through Performance-based Conditioning

I'm 54 years old and have been lifting since I was 18. I've read countless weightlifting (mainly bodybuilding) books starting with Arnold's stuff in the 70's. I'm a physician. I've been exposed to very little of the material here, but as I understand it, much of it is used currently for athletic training such as football. This thing is packed with great material and I've been working at mastering some of the ideas for several months. The olympic lifts and compound (multiple sets together) exercises are just fantastic. I'm no longer interested in bodybuilding but being strong and healthy and not wasting a lot of time, and this program seems to have it all. Buy this book, I think it will change your life. Be careful with the weight you use, very careful; unless you are well conditioned already you can easily hurt yourself. I've never written one of these reviews before but this time I'm compelled.

I used the yoga positions in the book to help me increase my flexibility and relax my mind. Does yoga increase flexibility? That's a definite. The writing in the book is well-done and is simple to follow.....
When I go to play golf I'm definitely more relaxed and more focused because of what I learned and practiced from this book.
{Yoga for Golfers: A Unique Mind-Body Approach to Golf Fitness} is a must-buy for all golfers.
Remember to practice the yoga positions because not only will you become more flexible, this also can contribute to having a peaceful mind both on and off the golf course.
Another great book which made me improve at golf is
{The Ultimate Golf Instruction Guide: Key Techniques for Becoming a Zero Handicap Golfer or Better} by Leonardi
This book was a also a total breakthrough for me...I've reduced my handicap because of it.
