Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Not for the Skimming Type
Let me start by saying that this book is one of the best how-to books that I have ever read. It had me at hello. The introduction's reasoning behind strength training is very convincing. A wonderful mix of research, experience and wit. I am recommending this book to all of my friends, most of whom are military and are constantly focused on their physical abilities.

Rating: - Superb!
Covers the basics of barbell lifting with depth and clarity. I've not read a more complete reference to these exercises.
Rating: - Must read
This is the book I wish someone gave me my first time in the gym. If you want to get into barbell training, this book is for you! Also, if you are a strength coach or trainer - you need to read this book! It will help take you from familiarization with basic exercises to mastery of them.
Rating: - Clear, succinct, and VERY effective!
Increased strength on all of my lifts and was able to do so without injury. Mr. Rippetoe and Dr. Kilgore lay out an effective progressive weight training regimen that is easy to follow. As a bonus, book is fun and interesting to read.
Rating: - SS Review
Excellent resource for beginners. Light on programming details past the novice phase, but that is what Practical Programming is for.
