I haven't read any of Joe DeFranco's books, but I'd love to read them. Mark Rippetoe's Starting Strength is a must have IMO. "2nd edition". Westside Barbell's Book of Methods is a great book. The Ketogenic Diet by Lyle McDonald is a good read for people that like to stay lean. The 5/3/1 Book by Jim Wendler is a good read....and very motivating. Dinosaur Training by Brooks Kupid is a pretty good read. Any other ones I'm missing that you guys recommend? I would probably recommend Joe DeFranco's books, but I haven't read them YET. I'll get around to reading them soon.

I've read a lot, but these are the most memorable for me:
Real Muscle Real Strength by John Christy The Development of Muscular Bulk and Power by Anthony Ditillo The Development of Physical Strength by Anthony Ditillo by Dr. Warren Willey (Bad title, good information) Principles of Fat Loss by Wesley Silveira by Weston Price by Gary Taubes

I forgot to add probably the best one of them all.
"The science and practice of strength training" by Vladimir Zatsiorsky.

I also like Shelby Starnes and Steve Colescott's "Lean Gains Pricipals" e-book.
Great little book on rotating high, med, and low carb days. Last edited by Off Road; 03-02-2012 at 06:20 PM. |

That's one I haven't seen yet.
If the depth of information is the same I'm sure it's incredible.
