This book would have been good in the early 1990's. The program detailed by Cressey is nothing new, nor spectacular.

You aren't missing anything if you skip this book.

If you want a quality strength training program, the Men's Health book by Robert Dos Remedios is much better (and probably one of the best out there.)

Good program with basic strength training protocols. Excellent section on functional mobility and warm-ups. I don't agree with all of the nutrition information, but if you're looking to get stronger, this book will definitely help!

Cressey is great, one of the most reliable strength training resources around. The program here is excellent, the only thing it lacks is more in-depth exercise description.
