Book Description
Get an inside view of the muscles in action during every exercise you perform. This ultimate strength reference contains full-color, detailed, anatomical drawings of exercises that target every major muscle group, along with full descriptions of how to perform them. The illustrations graphically depict both the muscles and the bones, with variations showing how the exercises can be modified to isolate specific muscles. It's like having an X ray of each exercise!

The former editor-in-chief of the French magazine PowerMag, author and illustrator Frederic Delavier is currently a journalist for the French magazine Le Monde du Muscle and a contributor to several other muscle publications, including Men's Health Germany.

5 out of 5 stars Great Book!   July 13, 2008
This is a great book for anyone who is looking for a better understanding of exercise physiology.


5 out of 5 stars Awesome book!   July 13, 2008
This book is incredible in its details. You get a complete picture of how each muscle is used during a certain exercise. I've never seen a book with this level of detail. Great for both men and women who lift to get a better understanding of muscles used. Includes upper and lower body diagrams!


5 out of 5 stars Very Helpful   July 12, 2008
I had hit a plato in my strength training and the CTO of my company recommended this book because it shows different way to focus on the same muscle groups. This book is very helpful and the diagrams are so detailed, also points out incorrect ways of doing exercises which helps prevent injury. I got everything that I expected out of this book! Amazing book for the value.


5 out of 5 stars Good for beginners   June 19, 2008
If your new to working out then this book is for you. If you know the basics already then you don't really need this book.
