What others have said about the 'So You Want to Become' book!

I read your book 'So you want to become a physical preparation coach' yesterday, and I really enjoyed it. Once I picked it up, I just couldn't put it down. The information and knowledge I gained from reading this book has given me a head start over my future rivals/colleagues, and it helped me clarify a lot of questions I had in my head about becoming involved in athlete preparation. Well done again!  It just goes to show that just because something is cheap, (or in my case free!) doesn't mean it is not extremely valuable. I'm sure I will re-read the book several times before I finish Uni and start looking for work. Thanks for telling it how it is - no bull****.

Thanks for the ‘So You Want to become a ...’ book. I can't put it down! A few days later….So You Want to Become A Strength…’ was excellent.  The info you presented has already given me new values, belief's and goals.  This is really what I want to do, but until I read your book, I was very unsure how to go about it.  Thanks.
--Mitchell

I have also finished reading "So, You Want to Become a Physical Preparation coach"  I found that book to be very helpful and will definitely be referring back to this book many of times as well. It helped me realize that, sure, there may be a lot of strength coaches out in the world, but how many know exactly what they should be doing. There is definitely a demand for GOOD strength coaches in this field. My goal is to become a GOOD strength coach through you... And of course through discipline.  The reason why I say this is because I don not know were else to turn for applicable information, let alone information that is correct.........Thanks.
--Ryan

I finished 'So You Want to Be a Physical Preparation Coach' in one sitting and I felt ready to take on the world! It's an incredibly motivating, or should I say "inspirational" book- as the book clearly demonstrates your beliefs on a strength coach's role in motivation!

So you want to be a Physical Preparation Coach," is an incredible book! You probably could have titled it "So you want to be a business owner!
