Hi all,
I have recently begun to try to read studies on strength, biomechanics and surrounding areas. I have seen a few quoted on this site so maybe some people can help out. I was wondering if anyone could provide their favourite researchers and studies to read and to avoid. Also there are a lot of absolute rubbish one’s out there…so avoiding these is critical.
A few researchers I have read up on are: Kraemer, Fleck, Zatsiorsky, Garhammer, Hauptmann, Hakkinen, Stone, Bosco, Baker, Chiu, Fry, Hartmann, Tunnemann, Enoka, Schmidtbleicher.
It would be great to have some suggestions/opinions on certain researchers and suggestions on others. Also, some advice on which studies to avoid etc would be great aswell as some favourite studies.
Sorry if this seems a boring subject.
All the best
I would highly recommend some of the old translated soviet weightlifting texts. They are written by coaches who have produced multiple world and olympic champions.
