These are quality articles from some of the most brilliant minds in the strength and conditioning community. Information can help you in understanding exercise for your own performance, in understanding how to help your child's performance, or in evaluating your prospective trainer. Knowledge is not always power, but is the potential for power. You must learn how to apply good knowledge to create real power.

Mike Boyle
Man who started NFL combined prep and a man who is always willing to change when new information comes out. His articles always offer a harsh wake up call to the average and dogmatic training. If you are willing to listen, then his words will help bring you to a new level.
