Physically Incorrect

I began searching my computer files, as well as the several magazines and websites I’ve written for, and the result is well over 180,000 words of my thoughts and approaches to the training sciences. There are several unique benefits of this volume as well: 1) Here, you’re seeing my articles before they were “dumbed down” by the magazines they appeared in (this has never happened with the web sites I’ve worked for, but was common in Muscle & Fitness and Muscle Media 2000). 2) Most articles start with a short introduction from me, explaining either my Physically Incorrect current thoughts on the subject matter, interesting feedback I’ve received about the article, and/or “behind the scenes” information that was not originally published. 3) Many exercises discussed are linked to photographs (typically, the original article did not include photos, particularly if it was originally published on the web). 4) Physically Incorrect also features a large Question and Answer section on a wide variety of topics. 5) Physically Incorrect contains a table of contents, a complete exercise glossary complete with links to photos, a glossary, and an index for convenient access to the information. All feature hyperlink navigational features.
