American Weightlifting

For many years, Glenn Pendlay dreamed of writing a book that would have helped him when he was an absolute beginner in the sport of weightlifting. American Weightlifting is that dream realized and is the culmination of his life's work. The text outlines the training methodology he used to train youth and masters athletes, world team members and everyone in between.

"Success in weightlifting isn't measured by the size of the mark we left on the sport, but by the size of the mark the sport left on us." Glenn Pendlay

This book contains detailed explanations of Glenn's Three-Step Top-Down method for teaching snatch and clean and jerk technique, along with programming for beginner, intermediate, and advanced weightlifters. Special considerations of programming for sports athletes are also featured in the text. Within these pages, readers will find multi-week programming templates, exercise descriptions, and guidance on competing and nutrition. Wonderful stories, experiences, and photos from Glenn's many years of coaching are also included.

American Weightlifting has something that will help everyone. Whether you're a weightlifter at any level or merely enthusiastic about strength training, this book will guide you to success in your journey to technical mastery and gaining strength. Every turn of the page will carry you deeper into Coach Glenn Pendlay's proven methods of training.

"American Weightlifting is wise, nuanced, and creative. I strongly recommend Glenn Pendlay's book to any athlete and coach who touches a barbell, not just weightlifters." -Pavel Tsatsouline, the author of Kettlebell Simple & Sinister
