FORWARD
Action without plan is chaos.
We are creatures of order and structure. Look at the Vatican. The Great Wall of China. Apple products.
The hallmark of human civilization is the hope, the dream of structure in a world
inexorably
spinning into
entropy.
And thus our training programs are microcosms of our greater struggle in an unpredictable world. It is
the only way in which neckbeard fuckheads can find peace, in neatly-calculated excel spreadsheets
which dictate their exercises and workloads on a daily basis.
Justin of all people realizes I will never read this book. But I can't deny that there are concepts in this
book that have guided my training despite my every effort to confound any outside observer's attempts
at finding a pattern or sense of reason to my training efforts.
Ideally, the concepts in this book will be as helpful to you as they have been, and continue to be, for me.
Maybe they'll give you a little *push*.

AUTHOR’S NOTE
Thank you for purchasing this book. I thoroughly enjoy coaching and teaching people and am grateful
that so many fine people are willing to learn. I’d like to thank Jacob Cloud and Steven Collegio for
helping me through the grueling process of creating this book. Jacob’s copy editing skills and Steven’s
regular graphic design make me look better than I actually am. Thank you to my close friends – Shawn,
Chris, Brent, Mike and AC – who have shared the love of training and allowed me to learn all that I have.
Thank you to all of the mentors and role models in the realm of fitness and strength and conditioning; I
am honored to know such men like Lon Kilgore and Michael Hartman. Thank you to all of the friends
who I have met along the way in this quest of 70’s Big; you are all too numerous to recount but no less
important. Lastly, thank you to the 70’s Big readers; you guys make this whole thing fun, even if you’re
annoying as hell.
This book assumes a healthy, drug-free trainee with
at least
halfway decent mobility, technique, and
recovery capabilities. Individuals with existing pathology – anatomical, neuroendocrine, or otherwise,
will receive and adapt to stress differently. Results may vary for trainees and lifters who are lazy and do
not implement good mobility, nutrition, and recovery habits. Because these factors determine the
success of a program, it is hereby assumed that the factors are adequately addressed by the reader.
Serious trainees will benefit from a quality coach to verify that their technique is adequate for the
execution of this program. Most of all, this book assumes a trainee with a training history that would
prepare them adequately for the intermediate programs within.
All photos are used with permission from the respective lifter’s video or under my ownership. Many
photos are screen capped from videos; it ensures that pictures are of real training instead of staged
positions.
