Never Let Go: A Philosophy of Lifting, Living and Learning

Good book

Excellent book.this is the truth about weight training.Read it once atleast if you want to live a good life. Finish the book quickly and keep making notes

This is a is a wonderfull, yet weird book.Much of it is already published om T-mag, but having it in a book to read or re-read is still a treat.Dan John is an excelent coach in getting you to remmember that imple is good, but simple aint easy.This is not a book for the casual lifter, or someone who wants to learn the lifts.But it is a briliant book for anyone who works with fitness and have to coach others. There are many gems of wisdom concerning lifting, learning, competing and eating.If you sometimes get lost in all the gloss and hype of the fitness industry, Dan is a good dose of reality: Get a heavy weigt..lift it fast.. repeat.Read it if you need a bit of reality!

I don't remember when I last enjoyed reading a book so much; and I read a lot! I also never laugh out loud and the book had me doing that. I was driving my wife crazy asking her to read the funny bits. I don't mean to take away from the educational and highly motivating parts of the book by saying that either! I've been training for about six years and am recently qualified as a Nutritional Advisor and also separately as a Personal Trainer. Since reading Dan's book two months ago I have joined a Weightlifting Club. That's how inspirational I found this book. Looking forward to the many years ahead filled with learning and lifting.

There's so much in here.I mean, yeah, there's training plans.But there's also how to live.Read it. Let it change you.

The examples from his life experiences along with the program's makes this this a great read for fitness enthusiasts. An athlete and a coach I feel can bring you insights that one alone won't have the experiences to share of research and trial.Some reviewers commented much could already be found on his web page but for those buying for travel reading I got this on kindle and read in places with no internet so it made this a perfect buy.

I have read several books from Dan John and they all provide so much meaning and insight into the bigger picture of strength and conditioning and life!His honest outlook and reflection through his decades of coaching and teaching provide so much information, and help other coaches to practically apply, as well as challenge their own approaches in order to improve.I totally recommend this book to everyone - I hope you enjoy it as much as me.
