Bible for the Novice

As an older novice to barbell training, Starting Strength was mandatory reading to understand the physics and physiological principles of proper technique. I found the book comprehensive in its coverage and informative regarding specific techniques of basic exercises that serve as a foundation for any strength-training program.

Other novices should read this book carefully before embarking on a strength-training program for two reasons: (1) to maximize the desired effects of training and (2) to avoid unnecessary injuries that will only delay the goals of (1).

The book everyone must read

I'm not an expert on training, but from the reviews I've read and all the info Ive come across on Rippetoe, this a must read. If all the principles on this book are true, which they sure seem from the detailed explanations and the depth of the physiological discussion, this book explains all you need to know to become strong and healthy. My results so far are awesome, not only because I feel much healthier and stronger, and I look better, but most of all, because I like the workout so much I just can think about anything else than going back to the gym. And I'm a guy who never enjoyed exercise much at all.

Everyone should own this.

This is by far the best lifting book available. The squat section alone is worth the price. I wish I would have had it years ago. I used to have problems with knees and back from squat and deadlift and the technique in this book helped tremendously.

Great Book

This is one of the best strength training books I have invested money and time into. It covers the dominant strength exercises in detail and includes great photos to enhance the learning process. This is well worth the money if you plan on getting strong and doing it the right way.

Excellent

Coach Rip applies a perfect amount of dry whit to his rock solid understanding of weight training and delivers a tutorial that is as readable as it is helpful. Starting Strength gives an insight to both form and function of barbell training that your everyday coach/trainer does not have and cannot provide.

Highly recommended for anyone that wants to improve their strength, and especially recommended for anyone that is in the position to be instructing others in weight training.
