I downloaded that book for free. I've about a dozen fitness titles I've downloaded for free like Scrawny to Brawny, Built for Show, two Rippetoe titles, the entire DiPasquale's, the entire Lyle McDonald's, a Thibaudeau, etc.

I did those when I used to do gymnastics. Had my coach supporting me for the handstand push ups, though.

That's cool. If I were to be interested in picking up recreational gymnastics, where would I go to/contact?
