Okay so i go away in 7 days for a nice relaxing 2 week holiday in Spain.

Now, i need to order some books to take away, you may link me to threads, links to amazon etc.

I just need to know what the best books are about. When i say this i mean, best reading, easy to read and don't bore you, and the ones i'll learn lots from

I am ordering so far..

Solitary Fitness - Charles Bronson, as i have wanted this for a while now and held back until now.

High-Intensity Training the Mike Mentzer Way - as i heard this was decent from a friend of mine.

What else? Starting Strength? Strength Training Anatomy?

Just name em please and maybe say why?

Cheers guys / girls!

well if your going on holiday and having time off the gym, wouldnt it be so much better reading a good old story book lol, and just forgetting about the gym completly while your away?

any book by dan brown gets a big tick from me

I bought this and it's a fairly good read however it's less of a book like bronson's which has a story behind it etc more of a resource..

however may be of use if you havn't already got it..

But as others have said, I would buy an easy ready book to chill with at some point on your holiday... It is a good time to put together an improved diet and training programme however so :thumbup1:

Yes guys, i see where you are coming from. But then again, when i am away from home, it's the only time i will read. As i don't have the internet, don't use my phone out there etc. I'll be relaxing by the pool with a book and a cider maybe .

Anyhow, yeah my father has a few Dan Brown books he is taking, i'll have a read of one of those maybe too. Just wanted to get some extra knowledge into this thick 16 yr old brain of mine ha-ha.

Thank you for your replies!

I read "The 50th Law" by Robert Greene and 50 Cent whilst I was away, thought it was brilliant. May or may not be your cup of tea
