Best Book for Strength Training! February 24, 2010 MBA Student (TN) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is a must own for anyone who is dedicated to strengthening, training, improving or maintaining their body. Easy to read, easy to reference, easy to understand. Seriously, it's a must own book for anyone that is active or is just starting. You don't have to be a body builder to benefit from this book either. It's shown in a way that removes weight lifting comparisons and ONLY focuses on the muscles and the body.

I enjoy weight lifting, and this definitely shows in extreme detail every muscle that is worked out. A lot of good pictures and some informative info to go along with the pics.
Great Information February 13, 2010 Brian Koch (MI United States) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have been lifting for years and this book helped me really see what was going on with the muscles in action. It is a good reference to see the correct form and muscles being used in various exercises and the details of the drawings are wonderful. It also has tips for avoiding injuries and working around them if they do happen. All-in-all I am very pleased with this book, if you are into body building or just interested in how the muscles work during motion I would highly recommend this book.
This Is An Excellent Book February 11, 2010 T. Haymon (LUMBERTON, NC, US) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
If you are one who likes to work out with weights this book is for you. We all know that some exercises are for arms, legs, etc. This book graphically shows you the muscles that each workout centers on. Small changes in your routine can work on different muscles if you use this book so that you don't hit plateaus.
