Some of My Favorite Strength & Conditioning Books

I am constantly asked about my favorite books or what I'm reading right now. My library is constantly growing, evolving, adding books on training, business, lifestyle, mindset and inspirational autobiographies. If you use the search bar on my blog you can find some OLD videos of me showing you the library from my previous home. Type in phrases such as "strength books", "business books", "strength & conditioning books", etc. Those older videos were certainly from some years ago but I … [Read more...]
