Apr 3, 2016 #1 Hello. Searched the forum and couldnt find ecactly what I was looking for. I've run 70sBig.com for nearly three years; I'm a strength and conditioning coach and writer who teaches lifting technique and programming. I have written two intermediate strength training e-books (The Texas Method: Part 1 and The Texas Method: Advanced) and a fitness/S&C book with professors Dr. Lon Kilgore and Dr. Michael Hartman called FIT.
