The book and DVD-ROM demonstrates the safest, most effective learning progressions for the snatch, clean, jerk, pulling assistance exercises, squat, and other lifts.

Included are specific power-development programs for 10 different power sports: football, baseball, basketball, soccer, volleyball, hockey, track and field, wrestling, racket sports, and competitive weightlifting.

The all-new DVD-ROM, enhanced by the award-winning Dartfish software, provides detailed video analysis of the included lifts.
