Coach,

I just ordered SS and am wondering if practical programming is another must have for weightlifters.

Thanks,

I have always tried not to write and publish irrelevant material.

Buy it. It's a GREAT read. I just wish I'd read it when I started lifting weights around this time last year. I could have saved myself some wasted effort.

It's been said more than once on another site that Starting Strength, Practical Programming, and The Strongest Shall Survive are the only books you'll ever need. Personally, I would add Harry Potter 1-7 onto that list, because I have to read about something other than strength training occasionally.

Practical Programming is the best book on weight training I've read.

Starting Strength and Practical Programming are pretty much the ONLY books I've read since high school lol.
