I had might as well toss in my education since it set me up do digest the Starting Strength content library except for the anatomy and biology stuff (which can be learned by grabbing a book).
-Local technical college diploma in mechanical engineering technology. It taught me about simple mechanics, physics, chemistry and how to optimize planning processes.
-Military college ROTP program. I took history for my BA but the real value here was getting exposed to a lot of intense, prolonged evaluation stress, a grinding workload and leadership training.
-Artillery officer trade training. This helped with developing obsessive attention to detail, focus under stress/fatigue, communication, problem solving and a physics & math refresher.
