not really a fan of men's health, information contradicts from one page to next and descriptions and instructions never marry up with images used

recommend me a book that contains strength cardio and power training

Mens health is borderline gay, it is a white middle class magazine for office bods. Just my opinion.

Men's health is to informative training journalism what 'Shazza luvs jizz' written on the wall of a public toilet is to classical literature.

Beyond Brawn, McRobert- Awesome.

Starting Strength , Rippetoe- Also awesome. You can find details of this program online.
