 dont waste your money December 14, 2007

If you want to learn about strength training for baseball, go to school and learn. All this book will go over is are very basic "meathead" routines with very little reasoning behind it. Not enough information for me. I found this book to be a waste of my money, dont make the same mistake.
 nice book April 5, 1999

I bought this book even though I do not play baseball. The descriptions of basic weight training exercises are excellent. Also, there are a number of agility drills and medicine ball exercises for the upper body which would benefit athletes from other sports.
 Commplete is definatly the word of choice. November 15, 1998

This book goes in depth with all areas of your game to help you reach your maximum ability and beyond in total body conditioning. I was pleased with each chapter and learned many new techniques and drills. There are many drills to chose from so you don't adapt to one training. I didn't know about this before and now I'm excited to set my futre in the right direction of conditioning. The book gives the games most effective secrets I didn't know about before and I now incorporate these secrets in preparing for the upcoming year. The book teaches the need to not just train hard, but smart. I can't tell you enough about how well thought out and written this book is. I believe this book goes beyond 5 star!
A great way to get ready for baseball season through trainin August 24, 1998

Complete training for baseball is a great book. It can change any persons life for the better if that person follows this book. Which is difficult. It almost expects that you have a full gym right in your basement. However if you do have a reachable full free-weight gym near to you this book can deeply help you. Also I would have liked the book more if it had a goal of how much weight should be lifted and how fast you should be. If those two things were added this would be the perfect book for anyone from 7-12 grades.
