Science of Strength Training

May find it useful

Adults who prefer a structured visual book and want one introductory reference covering training concepts, exercises and programme examples, after the edition receives full content appraisal.

May not need it

People already following a suitable reviewed plan, anyone who needs individual technique supervision or medical guidance, readers satisfied with free reputable resources, and adolescents until the route-specific safety and suitability review is complete.

Advantages

• DK’s current catalogue fixes the UK physical edition to Flexibound ISBN 9780241389454, 224 pages and 201 × 240 mm.
• The publisher describes coverage of physiology, exercise instruction, programmes, nutrition, injury prevention and training variables for a range of experience levels.

Limitations

• NST has not completed a cover-to-cover appraisal, checked the book’s citations, reproduced its programming logic, reviewed every technique cue or compared all advice with current evidence and guidance.
• Publisher phrases about science, proper form, safety, injury prevention and outcomes are descriptions of the book, not independent NST findings or guarantees.
• A book cannot assess the individual reader, supervise technique, diagnose pain, clear someone for training or replace appropriately qualified help.
• The UK and US publisher pages give inconsistent exercise-count descriptions, so no exercise count is recorded.
• The current ebook, ISBN 9780241528785, and US paperback, ISBN 9780744026955, are separate formats and must not be presented as the exact UK Flexibound edition.
• Each linked article needs a specific fit review; this book’s presence must not imply it answers genetics, motivation, ageing or adolescent-safety questions.
• No price, rating, rank, review count or cover image is recorded.
