Soccer Specific?: I haven't read every word in this book, but I was disappointed in its lack of soccer specificity (though it claims to be so). I wonder how much of it is identical to the other 30 "Ultimate Guide..." books the publisher publishes. I'm not saying the book isn't a good weight training book, or that I won't benefit by it, it just appears they may be marketing the same content under several titles, making you "think" it was written specifically for the sport. For instance, there is no indication that the author of this one, Robert Price, ever played soccer! I was expecting sections like, "To improve your kicking," or "stretching exercises for goalies," or "strengthening muscles for twisting/turning," etc.
Money Well Spent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!: I was recommended this book from a friend of mine who is also a soccer nut like myself. I found that this book clearly outlines how the individual player can exponentially increase their level of effectiveness on the pitch. Besides improving my general performance on the field by increasing my level of stamina, strength, and flexibility, I found that this book serves as a very good starting points for players of all abilities and ages. This book provides advice narrowly tailored towards soccer players. Where other books fail to provide advice about how one can prevent injures and make training fun, this book undoubtedly succeeds!!! Overall, a great buy.
Generic: Weight Training for Soccer? The only place you'll see the word Soccer is on the front cover. The exercises descriptions also need some heavy editing and some of the black and white photos are hard to make out. Misleading.
awesome!: This is the best book I have found of its kind! A workout plan just for soccer players that is clear and easy to understand. You can use this program at any skill level and see results fast. Definitely worth the price - I have introduced this program to my whole team!
Play like Beckham!: This book is great for any soccer player! I recommend it to anyone who wants to increase agility and stamina. This book has improved my game through its various exercises and weight lifting techniques. I highly recommend it to any soccer player at any level. A great buy!!!
