William Smith’s Garage Gym Bible.

Looks great.

Although it doesn’t arrive for a while yet (Oct 27), the title makes it pretty clear what it’s all about – setting up a ‘Garage Gym‘. Still, it’s a book we’ll be checking out in a couple of months’ time.

In the meantime, you’re more than welcome to pre-order it directly from the Amazon page :
William Smith’s Garage Gym Bible : The Expert Guide to Creating The Ideal Home Gym.

 

NB : We first looked at this one in the weekly Strength & Fitness Newsletter (part of the Strength Kit). If you'd like to have it sent to you automatically (free!) each week, just add your email here.

We also discuss a number of training-related books. If you're looking for the full list of the ones I'm checking out personally, swing by Goodreads. You can also suggest new ones there (or via this site's contact page) - I'm always on the lookout for more literary goodness.

Over to you. Drop us a line on Twitter ( @scottbird ), or add a comment below.

Cheers.

 

NB : if you love talking about strength-training as much as I do, you might also like to check out the weekly newsletter (there's also a daily version available). A regular dose of fitness-focussed discussions, absolutely free.
