    For the Deadlifter or Weight Training Historian
  

*by C***# on Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2016*

- Why I Read This BookI always enjoy reading about the training methods of past masters. In addition, I had been plagued with back problems, and I was particularly interested in the chapters on back ailments.- PositivesThis book has great histories about Louis Cyr, Hermann Goerner, and the Saxon brothers. I particularly enjoyed the inclusion of George Jowett's entire booklet, Molding a Mighty Back (I also recommend reading 
  
Molding A Mighty Grip







  
  
    ). This book has a few great technical articles. My favorite was by Vince Arnello, who also reviewed this book. There are a few good tips throughout that stuck with me, as for example to never let a bad back get cold (I purchased some back warmers from a military surplus site for this reason).Oddly enough, my favorite article in this anthology had nothing to do with the back...but with grip training: the "Grip" chapter on the bartender Mac Batchelor.- NegativesOf course, some articles are much better than others. For that reason, it took me a long time to work through this book (which was certainly worth the effort to get to the many gems).The biggest issues with this anthology are the formatting, editing, and picture quality. Sometimes it is difficult to discern what is part of the article and what is the editor's insert.-Final ThoughtsOverall, a great book for the serious deadlifter or the weight training historian. For more weight training history I strongly recommend 
  
The Super-Athletes: a Record of the Limits of Human Strength, Speed, and Stamina







  
  
    . For those with bad backs, I recommend 
  
7 Steps to a Pain-Free Life: How to Rapidly Relieve Back and Neck Pain







  
  
     and 
  
Fixing You: Back Pain 2nd edition: Self-Treatment for Back Pain, Sciatica, Bulging and Herniated Discs, Stenosis, Degenerative Discs, and other Diagnoses.

*by M***Y on Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2013*

Great information, but is in serious need of editing/layout help. It's mostly a book of copy/paste/print of articles from the 20th Century. Still very cool for someone like me who is an enthusiast and doesn't have time/can't find these old articles anywhere.
