Championship Weightlifting, by Tommy Kono
This book covers the important mental side of Olympic weightlifting and explains in detail about weightlifting technique and quality workouts. This book is definitely for those who wish to attain the best possible results in Olympic weightlifting . . . and in life.
"I can't think of any athlete or coach who wouldn't benefit from reading Championship Weightlifting, and most will benefit a great deal. There are many very useful and profound points made by Kono. They are particularly useful because they are points about mental
preparation, the importance of quality training and technique mastery that are often mentioned in passing but seldom addressed in detail in the weightlifting literature. In summary, this book is incredibly helpful on its own, and in combination with Weightlifting, Olympic Style, captures a lifetime of learning from one of weightlifting's most outstanding participants and astute observers. I recommend it highly." - Artie Drechsler, Author of Weightlifting Encyclopedia
"Championship Weightlifting, along withits predecessor, Weightlifting, Olympic Style, is destined to be among the great classics in
weightlifting history. Tommy, our sport's alltime greatest competitor, passes on knowledge that only he is qualified to do. If you're a fan
of Olympic weightlifting you must have both of these volumes in your personal library." - Dr. Peter George, World & Olympic Champion Lifter
