After years of hit and miss weight training where I never really broke through my plateaus and was constantly frustrated, I found out about Rippetoe's starting strength. In one year I increased all my lifts beyond my wildest dreams and am now training for powerlifting competitions.
The book is funny and well written, and unmatched for the depth and clarity given to each lift and each topic. But it with Practical Programming and you will never need another book on strength training.
Buy it! Buy it NOW!
 Starting September 22, 2008
this is an excellent product and every one will learn something from this book, it is a must read for someone about to start on his/her lifting career. Buy it now. No I have not been paid to say this either. Cheers Spud Murphy
Awesome September 19, 2008
If you listen to Coach Rippetoe and do what he tells you to do, you will get stronger than you ever have before. I have lifted weights off and on for years, never progressing in such a common-sense and linear way as I have since I started the Starting Strength program. If you read this book and do what it tells you to do, you will absolutely be stronger than you were before you knew the stuff in the book. I used to think I knew how to lift weights, I knew NOTHING until I read this book.
Great strength training method September 14, 2008
Starting Strength has been a real help in my effort to get stronger. It is NOT just for young athletes but us older ones too....I'm 50!
