Strength training used to be simple. Before performance-enhancing drugs muddied the waters and social media fed us new, "ground-breaking" exercises on a weekly basis, people simply focused on lifting the heaviest weights possible to build strength.
The Overload System for Strength reintroduces this time-tested, proven approach to achieving strength gains in the shortest time possible. Influenced by legends in the field of strength and conditioning, you will learn the progressive range of motion and neurological carryover training methods from Paul Anderson; supramaximal partial lifts espoused by Bob Peoples, Anthony Ditillo, and Harry Paschall; functional isometrics promoted by Bob Hoffman; and eccentric overloads. Through decades of sweat and effort, these methods have been proven to have the strongest effect on maximizing the nervous system's capacity to increase force production.
In The Overload System for Strength you'll find the following:

Christian Thibaudeau is a strength and conditioning coach
with over 22 years of experience. He has taught seminars in over 20
different countries and has worked with athletes in 28 sports at
all levels—high school to professional and Olympic athletes—as well
as the everyday lifter. His training has also led him to work with
competitors in the CrossFit Games and the Mr. Olympia bodybuilding
competition. An athlete himself, competing in football, rugby,
golf, weightlifting, and bodybuilding, Thibaudeau is the author of
several strength and conditioning books, including The Black Book
of Training Secrets, Theory and Application of Modern Strength and
Power Methods, High Threshold Muscle Building, and The Maximum
Muscle Bible, in addition to multiple training DVDs. He earned his
bachelor of science degree in exercise science from Quebec
University, where he also worked as a research assistant before
moving on to full-time coaching.
Tom Sheppard is head coach at Thibarmy and works with a wide
variety of high-level athletes from all backgrounds. His philosophy
is based on learning how to use the body as one integrated unit and
optimizing athletes’ lifting mechanics based on their body type.
This approach has brought him particular success in the sport of
powerlifting, where he has produced countless British, European,
and world champions and record holders. In addition to his role at
Thibarmy, he also works closely with EliteFTS, creating educational
material, working with high-level lifters to improve their
performance, and delivering seminars on the international stage,
including the 2022 SWIS Symposium.
