Questions about Volume 1

Does Volume 1 work on its own?

Yes. It's a complete guide on its own. It mentions the other volumes where they connect, but you don't need them to use it.

Do I need any equipment?

No gym needed: the Home / Minimal Equipment track mostly uses your bodyweight or a loaded backpack.

Do I need Adobe Acrobat?

No. This volume has fillable fields but no automatic calculations, so any PDF app that supports forms will do. The free Adobe Acrobat Reader is the most reliable choice.

Is it a physical book?

No. It's an interactive PDF you download straight after checkout. You can print it if you like.

Can I upgrade to the complete system later?

You can buy the complete system at any time; it includes this volume. [Upgrade discount: decide whether buyers of a single volume get credit, and update this answer.]
