With the onset of the indoor season I thought it might be timely to compile a list of linked articles on physical training from the web to try and make some order of the bewildering amount of free material out there.
The articles I found are listed and grouped by the authors I recognised (Adrian Berry, Dave Binney, John Gill, Neil Gresham, Eric Horst, Dave MacLeod, Steve McClure, Ben Moon, Audry Morrison and Marius Morstad) followed by a Lucky Dip section.
I can add any other links to other useful articles/material/sites at the end of the thread for a more comprehensive list.
