Summary

The changes made in this third edition were a result of the recent development in the printing and publishing industry. The Print-On-Demand option made it easy for authors to write and revise their work without the worry of the overhead financial burden of printing and storing voluminous amount of printed books. Also, the arrival of eBooks impacted publishing by eliminating the hassles of shipping and receiving for international readers. However, those recent development also imposed restrictions on the number of pages and binding of Print-On-Demand books. For the aforementioned reasons, I am compelled to divide the Second Edition into three volumes as follows. Part I: Bodybuilding and Powerlifting comprises the Strength Training aspect of the Second Edition. This part includes chapters 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 14, and 18. The reason for bundling those chapters in one volume is that the seven chapters cover the issues of strength training along the technical, nutritional, and behavioral aspects. Part II: Olympic Weightlifting comprises the two Olympic lifts, their supporting exercises, and the managements of loading and volume. This part includes chapters 7, 8, 9, 11, 13, 16, 19, 20, and 22. Those chapters cover the technical, management, and health aspects of Olympic Weightlifting. Part III: Performance Analysis deals with the comparative analysis of International and Olympic Weightlifters. This part encompass chapters 12, 15, 17, and 21 which deals with comparative analysis among weightlifters, the scientific foundation of lifting, and the decisions made on making choices regarding strength training.
