My new favorite workout book


More in-depth analysis later, but I am enamored with Men's Health Power Training by Robert dos Remedios.

In a nutshell, the programs are based on explosive, athletic lifting movements, and it includes many body-weight exercises including pull ups, pushups and the like, with Swiss-ball variations, or movements in different planes.






An example is the jacknife pushup, here shown with a Swiss ball rotation:
