Customer Reviews

Awesome strength, fitness, size program.

Truly a great program whether you are a serious collegiate level football player, or just a fitness freak wanting to get bigger, stronger, and faster. Follow this program as prescribed and you will be amazed at the results. This is the program that the Virginia Tech Hokies use as their strength training program. Take a look at the stats of players coming in from high school, to their strength, size and speed after a year at VT on the Gentry strength program. The results speak for themselves.

Well Written

Probably the most well written and thought out book on Strength and Conditioning out there. The authors have succesfully written a book for the layman to apply to themselves or their football program. A perfect book for anyone who does not already have their CSCS, or just wants to help their program or child succed. Not a lot of complicated jargon and theories, rather material that can be applied strait away. Well done.

A great guide to get into game shape...

I bought this book for my son, who is aiming to be a Hokie in a few more years. The information is clear and precise, with great pictures and illustrations. My only disappointment is that the book does not have a hard cover as described; it has a soft cover which can easily be bent and torn with the use I expect it to get.
