Tactical Barbell II: Conditioning by K. Black

You have something of great value in your hands. A lifetime’s worth of training knowledge, drawn from the world’s most extreme arenas. Lessons learned and best practices from military operators, tactical law enforcement, martial artists, and others that rely on their physical abilities to survive and thrive in harsh and unforgiving environments. It’s great having a 600lb squat and 400lb bench press. However, as an operational athlete, if you can’t run, work, or thrive for long periods of time in a multitude of energy demanding situations, you are ineffective. Your big bench press is useless, your big squat is useless. Tactical Barbell II is our energy systems manual for training tactical law enforcement candidates, soldiers and recreational athletes. It is a companion book to Tactical Barbell: Definitive Strength Training for the Operational Athlete. You will be hard pressed to find a more thorough and effective conditioning system. If you are a results-oriented individual looking for concrete, actionable programming based on cutting edge research, TBII is for you.
