Lifting weights is perhaps one of the fastest growing athletic activities of recent years. While many lift weights, many more would like to do so if they simply knew how to go about it. And those who know the most about weightlifting, serious competitive weightlifters, are not very accessible to the public. This book reveals the secrets of weightlifting, in material culled from more than 30 years of competitive experience, a review of more than 60 years of weightlifting literature, and extensive interviews with many of the greats of the sport.

This volume is a fresh approach to application of scientific and practical principles of weight training for sports, general fitness and bodybuilding. In addition, the last section of the Encyclopedia gives an excellent discussion of nutritional support of these weight-training programs. The information contained in Part I of the Encyclopedia of Weight Training presents the principles and practices that will enable anyone at any level of training to design and apply an effective weight-training program. The particulars of how to perform specific exercises have purposely not been addressed in this volume because there are many books that have amply covered the specific exercise techniques. The focus of the ENCYCLOPEDIA is the synthesis of the science and theory of weight training integrated with practical observations derived from years of training, coaching and teaching all levels and motivations of people participating in weight training programs. The combined experience of the authors extends over one hundred years and they continue to remain as active researchers, coaches and participants in all dimensions of weight training and application of super-nutrition for general health, training and competition.Part II of the Encyclopedia discusses the application of weight training programs for general fitness. This section includes a detailed discussion of Circuit Weight Training and Super Circuit Weight Training and the use of Low Intensity Sets and Repetitions in training for general fitness.Part III of the Encyclopedia presents a year-round weight-training model for sport. This model includes a discussion of: (1) The rationale for testing strength and motor performance variables; (2) The Conditioning Period; (3) The Training Period; (4) The In-Season Cycle; and, (5) Selected physiological and training principles related to strength training.Part IV familiarizes the reader with various dimensions of bodybuilding. It consists of a general discussion of bodybuilding followed by the presentation of a large section of bodybuilding principles. The final sub-section in weight training for bodybuilding includes information on systems of training.Part V of the Encyclopedia includes a discussion of the nutritional support needed for successful weight training programs for general fitness, sport and bodybuilding. This section discusses the basic principles of nutrition, body composition, body fat control, gaining functional weight (lean muscle mass), the need for vitamin and mineral supplementation, the wise use of antioxidants, protein supplementation and reviews a few metabolic optimizers for high activity levels. The ENCYCLOPEDIA OF WEIGHT TRAINING must be in your library as a reference and guide to weight training and nutrition for general fitness, bodybuilding, sport training and competition.
