Hail to the Dinosaurs!
We're heading into the Holiday season, and
I'm getting lots of "What should I get?"
questions.
Meaning that someone looks at all of the
different books and courses -- and DVD's --
that we offer here at Dino Headquarters, and
they want to know which to grab first.
So I thought I'd cover that topic and give
you some guidance.
Let me begin with something that tends to fly
under the radar screen. It's a 354 page book
called STRENGTH, MUSCLE AND POWER. I chose the
title because the book tells you how to build
exactly that. And it contains material for
trainees at all levels, from beginners to
intermediates to advanced lifters -- so there's
quite literally something for everyone.
Just take a peek at the table of contents:
1. Abbreviated Training Works!
2. Power Rack Training for Advanced Gains, Pt. 1
3. Power Rack Training for Advanced Gains, Part 2
4. Sensible Training for Advanced Lifters, Pt. 1
5. Sensible Training for Advanced Lifters, Pt. 2
6. How to Design a Productive Training Program,
Pt. 1
7. How to Design a Productive Training Program,
Pt. 2
8. How to Design a Productive Training Program,
Pt. 3
9. Rest-Pause Training, Pt. 1
10. Rest-Pause Training, Pt. 2
11. Body Part Specialization, Pt. 1
12. Body Part Specialization, Pt. 2
13. There Are No Hopeless Cases!
14. In Praise of Cellar Dwellers
15. A Hodgepodge of Training Advice
16. Ultra-abbreviated Strength Training Routines
17. Simplify -- Simplify -- Simplify!
18. The Essence of Strength
19. Believe in Yourself!
20. Scotland in a Barrel
21. One on One with Arthur Saxon
22. Finishers
23. Thick Bar Training
24. The One Hand Deadlift
25. An Island Gym
26. Goerner's Deadlift Variations
27. Barbell Basics
28. Another Abbreviated Training Program
29. Some Closing Remarks
As you can see, that's a ton of information -- and
it gives you MANY different ways to build strength,
muscle and power. And that's important -- because
when it comes to strength training, there's no one
size fits all program. Most people need to try
different approaches before they find what works
best for them -- and that's exactly why STRENGTH,
MUSCLE AND POWER is such a valuable book.
As I said, it tends to fly under the radar screen --
and some of you may not even have known it existed --
but it's a great book for anyone interested in real
world, no-nonsense, EFFECTIVE training programs.
As always, thanks for reading -- and if you train
today (as I will), make it a good one!
Yours in strength,
Brooks Kubik

P.S. 3. "Learn to be your own coach. Study different
training methods, and read as much as you can about
real world strength training, but think for yourself.
Use the exercises, weight, sets and reps that work best
for YOU based on your past experience." -- Brooks Kubik
