About this product

Use strongman training techniques to boost performance and add variety. Have you ever been curious about the strongman style of training ? Maybe it has interested you but you are not sure where to start. Or perhaps you have tried to learn more and found there is a shortage of accessible information for non-competitors. As a word-of-mouth sport, strongman knowledge has long been passed on only through veteran coaches and athletes. Strongman Training for Strength and Performance aims to switch things up by providing quality guidance on how to use strongman exercises to experience the benefits of this unique approach to training. With guidance from experienced coaches, you can learn how to incorporate strongman exercises and their many alternatives into your current training. Sample eight-week training programs are provided, allowing you to choose from one of four common goals: lose body fat, gain muscle, increase strength, or improve athletic performance. Each program offers three levels based on your training background:Level 1: Perfect for anyone with resistance training experience. You know your way around a standard gym or weight room but have not been training regularly―or you just recently resumed training.
Level 2: Regular resistance training is already part of your routine, and you are looking to incorporate strongman training into your routine or to potentially compete for fun!
Level 3: A good fit for athletes. You have extensive experience with resistance training and want to reach peak performance for your sport or for strongman competitions.
Each of the 15 main exercises and 45 alternative exercises is accompanied by photos and written descriptions. There are common errors and corrections for each exercise as well as progressions, regressions, and alternative equipment options. You don’t need to become a strongman competitor to reap the benefits of this training approach. Learn more about the sport, the exercises used, and how to add variety to your training with Strongman Training for Strength and Performance. Earn continuing education credits/units! A continuing education exam that uses this book is also available. It may be purchased separately or as part of a package that includes both the book and exam. Read more

Editor's Take

However, the search results returned limited direct customer feedback from Amazon, Reddit, or forums specifically tied to this exact ASIN. No clear Reddit thread or forum discussion about this exact book surfaced in the available results, so the overall sentiment is based mostly on the book description and the single YouTube result.

  • Amazon reviewers were not clearly surfaced in the available results for this exact product.
  • Reddit and forums did not show strong direct discussion of this exact book in the results.
  • YouTube did return at least one real video about the book, which supports that the product is being reviewed or discussed publicly.
