In The Great Barbell Handbook we try to take a functional approach to strength training, which simply means that the exercises you see here resemble movements done in everyday life. The idea is that if you can get strong and efficient at these movements, then the everyday tasks you demand from your body get easier and easier. In addition, with increased strength comes a sense of self-assurance and confidence.
The Great Barbell Handbook is written in a clear and concise manner, with step-by-step instructions and photos for all exercises. Each exercise description has a start and finish photo to demonstrate proper form and positioning.
