"I have been waiting for a question that relates to books, training, research and what information I would recommend. I will give two parts to this question…one being books or information I feel you should read while trying to increase your knowledge on nutrition and training. The second will contain books I believe you should read and read often. Oh yes, I am one of those people. I re-read book constantly, if I find a good one I will go back to it. I do it with movies and books." -John Welbourne CFFB
