Olympic Weightlifting books.

I read on the infamous TNation website once to identify 5 all time best strength training books that best relate to you & read them at least once a year. Of course '5' is an arbitrage number. The idea is to find quality material & stick with it. After all, its much better than trolling through loads & loads of message board posts, articles by hacks..and the like.

....so there's only three. These are the best books IMO...so far. It's a lits that is never definite.

thank you powerbuilder for the reply, much appreciated.
