I believe there was a summary of Greek training in the Weightlifting Encyclopedia by Art Drechsler. I don't have access to that book as my copy is at someone else's house for long term storage.

But from memory it's similar to what the Bulgarians and Turks are known to do!  :)hmrhd

Gotcha. At nearly 40 and just getting into it there is no way in heck I can copy it. But it would be fun to look at.
