A good overview on the subject of non-linear periodization and how to implement it. I was brought to this book after researching a little bit about the ideas of Dr Zourdos' Daily Undulating Periodization, and I must admit that I'm fascinated by the idea. While there are no silver bullets in the game of strength acquisition, if there is such a thing as an optimal weight training routine (hint: there isn't) it would probably some combination of of Tuchscherer's autoregulation and Fleck/Kraemer's ideas on flexible non-linear periodization. Recommended reading for strength junkies.
