Body by Science
A Research Based Program for Strength Training, Body building, and Complete Fitness in 12 Minutes a Week
About the book
Bodybuilder John R. Little and fitness medicine expert Doug McGuff set out a high-intensity strength program done once a week in 12 minutes. Citing research as its basis, the authors design the weekly workout to build muscle, increase strength and speed up metabolism.
Nassim Nicholas Taleb endorsed it, saying it taught him the value of intense training and maximal recovery, ideas he has applied with free weights for more than three years.

I feel guilty for not having posted a review earlier: I owe a lot to this book. I figured out the value of intensity training and maximizing recovery. I use the ideas but with minor modifications (my own personal workout is entirely based on free weights and barbells, but I incur --and accept --a risk of injury). I have been applying the ideas for more than three years. Just get over the inhibitions (and illusions of control) and accept the idea of training less.
Gratitude.
