Weight Training for Triathlon by Ben Greenfield (Guide Review)

Monday May 14, 2012
The book Weight Training for Triathlon - Ultimate Guide by Ben Greenfield came across my desk, and I am glad it did. It is a well laid out, well illustrated guide for triathletes on strength training for any phase of a training cycle, and for any level of triathlete. Some of the routines would be good for swimmers, and all of the illustrations would help someone that has questions on the proper form for weight lifting moves.
