    But there’s a problem: What do we do next? There are countless books on diet and exercise, hundreds of machines, devices and gimmicks to train people, and new gadgets and gizmos are popping up with every passing day.

The deconditioned and the elite share the same basic human body. Our job is to enhance performance and quality of life with every training situation.
