Stew's best book in my opinion. Make sure you heed the caveat that this is NOT a beginner running program. You should already be at an intermediate/ advanced-intermediate level before starting this program.
This works best for someone already in a conventional combat arms unit training to get into a tier 1 or 2 unit, for example.
If you want a more comprehensive program that you can use as from beginner-to-advanced, look into Tactical Barbell 2: Conditioning, or choose one of Stew's other prep books.

Good book, infor for advanced and beginner runners
I liked this book. Has good workouts, training theories, and this author is a professional in his field. I’ve got many of his books and he addresses his topics very well. Would def recommend this books to any runner.

Amazing and much needed program if you want to level-up. Not for beginners. I'd say it's designed for intermediates looking to jump up to advanced.
