Strength training used to be simple. Before performance-enhancing drugs muddied the waters and social media fed us new, "ground-breaking" exercises on a weekly basis, people simply focused on lifting the heaviest weights possible to build strength.

The Overload System for Strength reintroduces this time-tested, proven approach to achieving strength gains in the shortest time possible. Influenced by legends in the field of strength and conditioning, you will learn the progressive range of motion and neurological carryover training methods from Paul Anderson; supramaximal partial lifts espoused by Bob Peoples, Anthony Ditillo, and Harry Paschall; functional isometrics promoted by Bob Hoffman; and eccentric overloads. Through decades of sweat and effort, these methods have been proven to have the strongest effect on maximizing the nervous system's capacity to increase force production.

In The Overload System for Strength you'll find the following:

  • Ten advanced methods to increase strength, including progressive range of motion, heavy partials, and functional isometrics
  • Detailed technical instruction for six main lifts that promote large strength gains
  • Frequency, split, and specialization options to fit your preferences, goals, and schedule
Written by Christian Thibaudeau, a renowned strength and conditioning coach who has trained Olympic athletes and CrossFit Games competitors, and Tom Sheppard, a strength coach and author who works with Thibarmy, EliteFTS, and T-Nation, The Overload System for Strength brings the methods of legends into the modern era and teaches you how to realize your strength potential.

Skip the gimmicks and fads; use the training that has provided results for decades. The Overload System for Strength is your time-tested, proven guidebook to unlocking the strength gains you have been looking for.
