About this listen
There are lots of things about weight training in general and barbell exercise in particular that can only be learned by spending way too many hours in the gym. And honestly, unless you're a gym owner, this is a really weird way to spend 75 hours a week.
Mark Rippetoe has been in the fitness industry since 1978 and has owned a black-iron gym since 1984. He knows things about lifting weights and training for performance that most other coaches and professionals have never had the chance to learn. This book of essays offers a glimpse into the depths of experience made possible through many years under the bar, and many more years spent helping others under the bar.

So it should come as a surprise to exactly no one that trust, human connection, and mental well-being are all on the decline. This may seem like no laughing matter. Yet, the research shows that humor and laughter are among the most valuable tools we have at our disposal for strengthening bonds and relationships, diffusing stress and tension, boosting resilience, and performing when the stakes are high.

What’s your max squat? How much ya bench? What’s your best deadlift? Can you press your body weight? Today, pushing quantifiable expressions of strength, like your maxes, is becoming increasingly ubiquitous. However, though strength may be specific, real strength is much more than a powerlifting total - it’s about resilience, capability, and adaptability. It’s survival of the fittest after all, not the strongest.

Triathlon: Winning at 70.3 is dedicated to all triathletes who are thinking about stepping up to the middle distance. 70.3 Half Ironman training requires quite a different approach to the shorter distances, and to be successful, a more professional approach to training is required. Do not set yourself up for failure on race day! Simply doubling your Olympic distance training will not work. Those who do this will struggle. Do not be one of these! 70.3 triathlon is a serious step up and preparation is key.

Regular walking allows your body to burn more calories, boosting your weight loss and bringing with it a whole host of extra benefits—to both physical and emotional health. In fact, if you were to gradually build just 3 hours of walking into your week, you could lose up to 25 percent more body weight in 12 weeks than you would by dieting alone. There couldn’t be a more straightforward way to lose weight and build fitness. And the beauty is you can tailor it to suit your lifestyle irrespective of age, gender, fitness, wealth, or social positioning.

Classic Rippetoe Rant
When you hear it you'll instantly know how important the squat is and how close Mark Rippetoe can impersonate Tim Curry.
I am a huge supporter of this man and his simple system of strength training. This book is a look into the mind of the Rippetoe, and I would consider this a condensed version of his radio show.

Strong
Straight forward and truthful. I'm in my 70s and still going strong. This book reinforces my training philosophy.

Loved it
The more I learn about Rip and the more of his stuff I read, the more I like him and the more I find we have in common. Great book. Read it several times.

more for intermediate lifters
This is perhaps a book meant for intermediate/beginning lifters. I imagine the hard copy has diagrams and things to follow. Overall it was a decent a decent listen considering I've been out of the gym for 3 months. it helped me get theorivation and confidence to go back. but as an intermediate/advanced lifter myself (been in sports/lifting for over 20 years) I can't say I learned much new information.
