A Basic Guide to Decathlon

Dr. Zarnowski provides a throrough guide for any level of decathlete from beginner to Masters athletes. The author develops the text from a historical perspective and walks the reader/athlete through the rules, equipment, training, and insightful competition tips that will benefit athletes of all ages. This book is not a one time read. This is a handbook that you will read over and over and it will be in training bag - not on your shelf. I am sure with the authors expertise in the event this could have been decathlons version of "War And Peace", but the writing is concise, entertaining and not over layden with training jargon. A must for your library.
