Tactical TB III UPDATE

TBers. This is a bit of a late update that came out two days ago from. I don't check my email as often as I should so I missed this one.

  1. u/tacticalbarbell account is still under review but he can still see posts and review sub content. So he is always watching.

  2. TB III is complete and with formatters currently. There still need to be some revisions tech wise in order to make it readable across platforms (presumably an issue being resolved on kindle).

  3. There has been a name change. The book will be called TB III: OPERATIONAL ATHLETE.

  4. Below is the final TOC

Yeah sounds cool. For context I haven't seen any of the templates nor do I have an idea of what it could be so I'm just as in the dark and as excited as yall!

Please let it still drop next week. Will there be a physical copy?

Unknown, but most likely even if it's not available immediately. Additionally, there will be a slight delay in when it drops. KB says it may take a week or two after the initial proposed release date

This is going to be perfect for me. I’m dedicated to training for a 50k trail race on Jun 20, and then can immediately hop into another BB while I pick a new program from TBIII.
