In brief it was written from practical experience for people who wanted to know practical guidelines of HOW TO WRITE Strength Training Programs.

It is broken into three parts. Part A takes you, point by point, through the steps you should consider when writing a strength training program. When you come upon a step that you would like further information or clarity on, you will find it in Section B. Part B is a summary of the variables and related issues in strength training programs. It is arranged alphabetically for ease of reference. Part C provides samples of how I write strength programs. If you want further information on the exercises used in these and other examples throughout this book, refer to the partner text How to Teach Strength Training Exercises.

Note that this book was first published in 1998, and we will leave you, the reader, to resolve any thoughts about books published since then with the same or similar content.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ECPA BESTSELLER • A compelling emotional and spiritual case against hurry and in favor of a slower, simpler way of life “As someone all too familiar with ‘hurry sickness,’ I desperately needed this book.”—Scott Harrison, New York Times best-selling author of Thirst “Who am I becoming?” That was the question nagging pastor and author John Mark Comer. Outwardly, he appeared successful. But inwardly, things weren’t pretty. So he turned to a trusted mentor for guidance and heard these words: “Ruthlessly eliminate hurry from your life. Hurry is the great enemy of the spiritual life.” It wasn’t the response he expected, but it was—and continues to be—the answer he needs. Too often we treat the symptoms of toxicity in our modern world instead of trying to pinpoint the cause. A growing number of voices are pointing at hurry, or busyness, as a root of much evil. Within the pages of this book, you’ll find a fascinating roadmap to staying emotionally healthy and spiritually alive in the chaos of the modern world.
