There is a difference between Exercise and Training. Exercise is physical activity for its own sake, a workout done for the effect it produces today, during the workout or right after you're through. Training is physical activity done with a longer-term goal in mind, the constituent workouts of which are specifically designed to produce that goal. Training is how athletes prepare to win, and how all motivated people approach physical preparation.

The Definitive Text on Strength Programing This book was a real "eye opener" for me. I have never seen another book that explains the different approaches to getting stronger. There are hundreds if not thousands of books on "How to Squat" or "How to Deadlift" but I've never seen anything that delves into how to manipulate the variables of recovery, intensity, and volume. I have had to reread some chapters as I am constantly reevaluating how I approach strength programming. Remarkable book that is NOT for beginners for even early intermediates. This is a book for people who want to understand how to make humans stronger over time and the tradeoffs and benefits of manipulating training variables."Get very strong in very little time with very few tools." ...should be the title. Anyone who hopes to advance their strength training past the Novice stage needs this resource. It's a whole book dedicated to developing strength using as few tools, and in as little time as possible. Barbell, plates, rack, lifting shoes, belt, pen, paper, shorts, shirt. That's it. Not the only way to get strong, of course, but the methods are very very effective for people who do other things besides living in the gym. A lot of time-saving advice and strategies that average-joes and athletes alike can benefit from. You better enjoy pushing very hard on barbell exercises though because the whole book centers around them and close variants. Anyone easily demoralized by hard efforts under a bar will need to change their attitude if they want to get anything out of this.Highly Recommended for a Solid Understanding of How to Conduct Strength Training and Why I really enjoyed Practical Programming for Strength Training because it answers many of questions I was left with after reading Rippetoe's Starting Strength book. It has been useful for me as someone who trains, someone who advises his wife on how to train, and someone who demands to know the reasons behind the programs laid out by Rippetoe.The Starting Strength book focuses primarily on the major lifts - how to do them, and why they are done that way. It does a very good job of this and is an invaluable tool for trainees and coaches alike. The end of the book lays out the basic Starting Strength novice program, which is working impressively well for both my wife and me at this time. Staring Strength is an excellent book for what it purports to be: a guide to "starting" strength training. However, the layout of the Novice program laid out is very basic, and it does not answer a lot of the questions that a serious trainee will inevitably start asking: what if I advance beyond the novice stage? What do I do if I'm returning to training after being ill for a few weeks? What if I have an injury? What if someone does not fall within the 18 to 35 age range? Etc. And of course, there is always the burning question of "Why is the program set up as it is?" and the follow-up "What constitutes good programming and why?"Practical Programming for Strength Training answers these and other questions in a very clear, thorough, and well-ordered fashion. It gives the reader a well-rounded understanding of the physiological mechanisms behind strength adaptation, upon which it lays out and justifies the novice, intermediate, and advanced programs. It goes into detail about various circumstances trainees may encounter during their progress towards getting stronger.All-in-all it is a very thorough, easy-to-understand, and well-argued book which provides the serious trainee or coach with a solid foundation in knowledge about programming for strength training.Unless you have considerable competence with barbell training, I would recommend starting with the Starting Strength book before moving on toPractical Programming for Strength Training.
