You can just google and find a PDF of it for free.
The Texas Method templates in it are shit, but the more theoretical stuff is pretty interesting.

This.
The book is a good read and does give you a great insight on what kind of programming you should be focusing on, but man I got pretty damn confused with the shitty layouts of the programs listed in it.
Compare that to the tnation article or the starting strength wiki of the texas method and the clarity is night and day between the websites and the book.

>Decide "I'm not gonna go to the gym today"
>Look out window
>See Ripp
>>35471601
definitely.
>>35472412
the new version that came out last year is much, much better in terms of providing more templates.
>>35472453
that's because the book is more aimed toward helping you develop a construct of methodology - so that over a lifetime, you can evolve your own programs based on sound principles.

>"I've seen people drop the barbell once they get to the top of the deadlift..." at this point the interviewer is interrupted by Rip who says with a death stare "THAT'S FOR FUCKING PUSSIES, IT'S DISRESPECTFUL TO THE EQUIPMENT"
One of my favorites
/r/ing for the story where rip is lucifer and makes a dyel do SS+GOMAD in hell
this man should be put before an international court for turning thousands of innocent men into mishapen obese homonculi
>>35458477
just heard his podcast on the art of manliness. he seems like a cool dude and convinced me to do sets of 5's
>>35472432
haha just kidding brah
we cool here man?
Rip is well-informed but also an ignorant man of very narrow view. When contradicted, he will just lash out with the usual artillery like "Pussy", "Whimp" and continue his nearly religious rant about the lord and saviour called compound lifts.
Follow his learnings if you are a new, uninformed lifter looking to gain mass and strength. But do know that this is literally everything they will ever be good for.
