Wow.. this is great! There are picture illustrations for both starting and ending positions, and additional pictures showing additional moves to make them tougher or easier. And you can combine different moves into one continuous multi-tasking combo exercise.

I really enjoy this workout book. The exercise ideas are excellent, and the full workouts are both varied and challenging. They have quite a few different workouts, and most can be made more or less challenging by using variations that they suggest. I will enjoy using this book for years. There are a few editing errors so probably when there's a second edition it will be neater, but the editing errors are pretty easy to catch.

Body Bar: 133 Moves for Full-Body Fitness
This book gives clear and uncomplicated instructions for using a body bar for fitness. There is a graduation of complexity for when you get stronger.
I find it difficult to work out to a book, but the pictures made it pretty easy -- and learning the proper form made it a piece of cake to transition to a video

The Real Deal March 10, 2007

When I first bought this book, I thought it was just another hyped fitness book. I already had a bar, so I thought, what the heck. The price was also good. I just did the workout, and it is amazing. The thing about the bar being more balaced than free weights is true. I can do some things with the bar that I couldn't do with free weights, because it felt unbalanced. The "kayak" is an amazing workout. "Stirring the pot" is amazing. I was sweating hard, and I bike all the time. This is good stuff ! I really recommend it. There are MANY great exercises in the book, and the pictures and text are very good.
