Last week we looked at a top 10 list of theoretical books.

Here is a top 11 list of more practical resources

1. Chek, P. - www.chekinstitute.com (correspondance courses and educations)
2. Poliquin, C. - www.charlespoliquin.com
3. Tsatsouline, P. - www.dragondoor.com (books and DVDs)
4. Sonnon, S. - www.rmaxinternational.com (books and DVDs)
5. Louie Simmons - www.westsidebarbell.com
6. Sports Speed by Dintiman, Ward and Tellez
7. Encyclopedia of Weightlifting, Dreschler, A.
8. Dr Michael Yessis (Don’t have any of his books, but have read a few articles and I think his material is a notch above most of what is out there.)
9. John Brookfield (grip training) (www.ironmind.com)
10. Dennis Rogers (grip training) (www.dennisrogers.com)
11. www.ultimateathleteconcepts.com has some really cool books by some of the great Russians.

Both www.elitefts.com and www.ironmind.com have an extensive online store with quite a bit of practical books that look very promising.

For speed, agility, quickness I have learned most of what I know from Santana, Farentinos and I liked D. Chus first book on plyometric training.

I would be honoured to learn which books are on YOUR “top 10″ book list and would greatly appreciate your comment below (and I am sure the other readers of this blog would like that too).

PS: Don’t feel you have enough time to read? Look forward to “The Flexible Periodization Method” that has 16 years of reasearch condensed in one practical book.

PPS: Make sure to read next week’s blog, where I reveal one of the 16 key features built into “The Flexible Periodization Method”.
