A training shelf from Race, Steamboat & Thatcher

The book

The Professional Wrestlers’ Workout & Instructional Guide is credited to Harley Race, Ricky Steamboat, and Les Thatcher. Sports Publishing released the 129-page illustrated book in 2005; its ISBN is 9781582619477.

The visible contents list sections on entering the business, strength and conditioning, maneuvers, ring psychology, and selling yourself. That breadth makes it a relevant reading reference for this library.

What this entry can establish

We consulted the Google Books catalog and contents preview, not the full text. We cannot responsibly reproduce a workout or claim that a particular technical cue comes from the book without reading the relevant passage.

Read with a notebook

Editorial reading method: record a chapter or page, a short paraphrase, and one question for your current coach. Distinguish a historical practice from something your school asks you to do now.

Finding a copy

Use the ISBN with a library or authorized bookseller. A discovery catalog can help identify an edition; the catalog listing alone is not evidence for a training claim. No scanned book or PDF copy is included here.
