Top Notch Books/Resources that have helped to shape my training philosophies and views   


Fitness, Strength and Conditioning, Exercise Science or whatever you wish to say is more than just a job for me. It is a life. I pretty much eat, breathe, and sleep this stuff. When I am not training clients or myself, you can find me reading, studying, watching videos, etc. in order to constantly get better, learn more, and become more knowledgeable in all aspects of the body and performance. After being around some of the extremely knowledgeable people that I have been around, I know its a must to continually strive to learn.
By no means an exhaustive list, here are a few favorites that I continually go back to. I'll be adding to/modifying it periodically
