Weight Training by Design -- for Structural Integrity
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Few people make posture the top priority until they get an injury. I had fatigued my way into a shoulder impingement, not knowing how to position the shoulders, chest, back, abs and hips to avoid compromise and strain. Luckily I met Dale, had some sessions, bought the book. I do the "daily dozen" and about half of the exercises, which is plenty. My brain relates to the strict instructive photos. One reviewer wanted more details, but if you look closely the pictures give very definite examples. The workout is first rate if you do it right. Which builds recovery and success.
exceptionally clear and useful method...gets one on the right track
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I have tried working out with many trainers as I need the development of bone density and yet have joint problems, little cartilage, and low bone density, all necessitating great care. Without exception, every trainer before Dale hurt me. I have been working out with Dale's method, under his guidance, for over five years. I have never gotten injured and according to bone scans, my density has improved over these years. This book is a welcome addition to the body of weight training material available. It is clear and concise and allows one to develop strength and bone density (as well as sculpting the body...an added benefit!) without injury through a proven method. Now everyone can take advantage of Dale's expertise through the system he has developed and committed to writing in this book wherever they live, without fear of injury.
Clear, helpful, and practical
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This is a book meant to be taken to the gym. It's clearly detailed, helpfully photographed, and explained in a way that novices and more advanced fitness enthusiasts can use it with great benefit. I haven't found a book of its kind that is so comprehensive and practical. The exercises, especially the Balanced Antagonistic Muscle approach, make for a safe, speedy, and fun workout. I recommend it unconditionally.
Weight training guide is comprehensive and clear
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I think Weight Training by Design is a very comprehensive, clear and logical training method. The BAM superset system will get you pumped. The workout is nice because it's both quick and effective. The book is much more specific than other weight training guides I've seen, and covers a variety of levels of difficulty and intensity. It works for me because I like to have a few routines I can do depending on my fitness level and what I'm trying to accomplish. The authors give very detailed information and recommendations about diet as well. Not just what to eat, but when. This would be a great book to have if you've just starting weight training, or if you're been training but really want to take it to the next level.
Take this with you to your club!

This book is easy to read, comprehensive, and accompanied by instructive photographs. It even shows you what not to do! I think this should be required reading for any person about to begin weight training. They should be sold at all facilities with weight training equipment to enable clients to maximize their efforts!
