The new version is terrific with lots of pictures and details about how to perform basic barbell exercises. This updated edition seems a lot bigger and more detailed than the 2nd edition. The book takes the reader through the proper form for squats, deadlifts, presses and a number of other exercises. It would make a great gift for the weightlifter or exercise buff on your list.]]>Wed, 30 Nov 2011 09:14:21 -0500<![CDATA[Helen Smith]]>https://pjmedia.com/helen-smith/2011/11/30/is-physical-strength-the-most-important-thing-in-life-n137906
