This is for anyone that can offer books on power lifting that can be found at a library or bookstores. I am looking for some that are up todate and easy to follow. Thanks!

There are sooooo many books out there now, you could (and should!) really build quite the library. When I first started out, publications at your local bookstore were basically non-existent. But, now, with the widespread availability of the ‘net, and bookstores and article archives abound thereon, the beginner or professional powerlifter can be like a little kid in a candy store!

Here are a few books that no powerlifter’s library should be without. I’ll add more as I think of them:
Powerlifting Basics, Texas-Style
Powerlifting, by Barney Groves
Strength Training Anatomy
The Strongest Shall Survive
Dinosaur Training
Iron Mind
The Weightlifting Encyclopedia
Super Squats
Powerlifing USA (magazine)
Milo (magazine)
