Publisher's summary

You have two choices:

  1. Be lucky enough in middle school, junior high, or high school to be taught basic body movements and step-by-step instructions in the Olympic lifts, powerlifting, mobility, flexibility, kettlebell training, and tumbling
  2. Apply intervention five principles

Here are the answers, but the questions are the real keys:

Strength training for lean body mass and joint mobility work trump everything else.

  • Fundamental human movements are...fundamental.
  • Standards and gaps must be constantly assessed.
  • The notion of "park bench" and "bus bench" workouts must be applied throughout the training lifetime.
  • Constantly strive for mastery and grace.

Great

Dan has an amazing ability to say exactly what you need to hear at the exact right point in your life. You can take anything he has said put it away for a few year then rehear it at a totally different point in your life and it will be exactly what you need to hear then too. Only in a different way.

Common sens in a book

I'm a sucker for Dan's stuff and, as expected, I enjoyed this book quite a lot. Dan walked the path of performance, as a thrower and lifter, and did a lot of mistakes along the way. All he's trying to do is to point out common pitfalls and provide sustainable alternatives.

Simple, not Easy

Every book I've read by this guy has been truly amazing. My title says it all about the methods he uses.
