The Weightlifting Encyclopedia

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.
