There are a number of them. I'd like to review them.

Jim Stoppani's "Encyclopedia of Muscle and Strength"
-Not bad at all. And I don't really like Stoppani. There are a lot of useful routines and concepts here, despite him being married to the HIIT concept.

ZEE's "Encyclopedia of Underground Strength and Conditioning"
-I got to admire Zack's hustle, but as a book this includes way too much biographical knowledge...nobody wants to read the story of Zack in 100 pages. And the routines are kind of meh. I didn't like this book. I consider it a waste of time to read.

Josh Bryant's "Built to the Hilt", "Metroflex Powerbuilding Basics", "Jailhouse Strong"
-Generally good. Out of all three, the focus of "Jailhouse Strong" makes for the best book. However, "Built to the Hilt" and "MPB" both have a bunch of routines if you are looking for that sort of thing. Bryant's routines tend towards voluminous, but doable for a non drug guy.

Matt Kroczaleski's "Insane Training"
-I'm a friend of Kroc's so take that into consideration, this is pretty short compared to the others, but it does contain good tips on the powerlifts and also the routines Kroc will use for his clients. I liked this book quite a bit. The "Insane Training" refers more for Kroc's own training, not necessarily to the routines he lists in the book.

What's the name of the Juggernaut Hypertrophy book? Any reviews of that?

EZ Strength by DJ and Pavel is in the Category of ST, Training of Weightlifter by Roman, and Peaking on Demand imho.

Best book either one of them ever wrote. And i like their other stuff.

I definitely agree. Easy Strength is a book that I recommend anybody get.

it's crap.

I admit I really liked CnP's Destroy the Opposition. It's like a better version of Purposeful Primitive. Lot more usable training info. Enough "routine" possibilities to last many years.

You know...yeah, CnP puts out good material...even if you don't agree with it, it's
1. Pretty unique to him
2. Stuff he believes in.
3. Stuff he's done.

One that gets either not enough love or too much love is Justa's "Rock, Iron, Steel". Some seriously goofy shit, and some decent shit.

Dan McKim's "Behemoth"
-worth it if you love bodypart splits, linear periodization, and Jesus

Haven't seen it. BEEEELEEVETTTTHROOOWWWEEER
