When you Own these Keys You'll Make Progress Like Few People Do
This is the book I wish I had when I got started training. It would have eliminated so many false starts and unproductive sessions.
The sad thing is few trainees understand what it takes to get results. Even the simple concept of progression is foreign to most people. Because of this you'll see people in the gym lifting the same weight year after year. And that is just one component of what it takes to succeed.
I've been training successfully for many years now. I've reached a decent level of results in that time. I've also learned quite a bit. So I sat down to write a book that covered everything I knew of what it takes to become stronger and more fit. And it details all the different areas you must work on in order to achieve your goals.
