The book, along with the DVD, is very explicit in explaining how to teach dynamic lifting.
By following the instructions in the book and on the disc, coaches with limited experience in utilizing explosive training as part of their program can begin to implement these lifts to improve athletic performance."

My native state is India, but I am currently in Dubai, UAE. I purchased your book and videotape, Explosive Lifting for Sports, which is so interesting. The scientific approach to increasing power is excellent.
Thanks,"

I especially like the sequence photos of the Snatch and Clean-and-Jerk. I constantly use these, particularly with my beginners.
This is straight talk from an experienced weightlifting coach!"

His DVD of the same name brings the book to life! You really can get a feel for the speed and power needed to execute a successful lift.
As a coach, I recommend Explosive Lifting for Sports be included in your library as a reference for yourself and athletes to assist with teaching proper technique for the lifts.
From my role as an older, experienced coach and athlete, a review of Harvey's materials has reminded me that basics easily became buried and forgotten. Explosive Lifting for Sports has brought this forward so I can apply them to my novice, as well as accomplished, athletes.
You gotta have this, plain and simple."
