Best Book for Athletic Training

I used this book to better understand the methods employed by westside barbell to redesign a training program tailored to my rodeo event and it does not disappoint. Strength is through the roof, as well as mobility. Highly recommend this book to anyone who considers themselves to be a serious athlete or lifter.

Must have

Struggling through a system of waves inside waves inside waves, book of methods helped clear a lot up for me. Im sure it is clear and simple to guys who lived it. From the outside looking in not so much. Other templates out there and breakdowns seem to be missing stuff. Have parts cut out and are unclear. This book, Louies other writings and the Westside blogs he did got me sorted out enough I was able to get my four week waves down on a chalkboard. percentages, exercises, ect.
Honestly this book is a must have. I wish i had read this before hearing anyone else's take on the system.
