It is a really well researched text for the trainer. Clearly a lot of modern information on sensible training procedures were used. As the downloader/printer, he who got it to public market, states if you want to get fit this book will get you there. You to have realise it is designed for the military, so there is extra material on training groups etc, but , the balance of it with well presented excercises is magnificantly complete. I put the book in the hands of professional excercise physiologists and they nodded their approval. They were especially pleased to see a huge improvement over earlier Army texts. This one takes you from "unfit on the streets" to fit person, Army or not. Well presented clear to read, covers all the ares needed. Review: Excellent Manual - I bought this manual because I wanted to reacquaint myself with my physical training exercises from decades ago when I was in the Army. It’s very thorough and comprehensive and takes me back to my time in the military.
