Brad Schoenfeld, among the most recognized and published authorities in the industry, has recently released his newest title, Strong & Sculpted, a total body strength and physique program for women seeking peak condition. In his introduction, Schoenfeld quotes the Chinese proverb, “Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish, and you feed him for life.” Schoenfeld does just that. He doesn’t just simply give the how, he empowers the reader with the why; striking the balance of evidence-based training methods and delivering it in a way that is user-friendly and results-driven in application. With 117 specific exercises and appealing imaging, a clear periodized program and explanations on effective cardio training and recovery, this is a training manual you will re-read, dog-ear, highlight and keep within arm’s reach.

Strong & Sculpted is available at www.amazon.com or www.humankinetics.com
