Useful reference January 4, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book is pretty much what its title promises: a discussion of many forms of anabolic (muscle-building) agents and procedures. It's a bit dated now, but still contains a lot of useful information, and is a standard source I consult when I am learning about something. That said, it is a "primer": it contains basic information, and it should probably never be the only source you consult, unless it is for a well established and thoroughly researched agent like creatine monohydrate. I would recommend this book for any beginning or intermediate weight lifter.
One thing that puzzles me about the design of this book is that it begins with a discussion of anabolic steroids. I didn't know much about steroids before reading it, so I found this informative. The authors' position is the now-conventional "We don't recommend steroids, but it's a personal decision" line, which makes it an odd way to begin the book. Who begins a book with something you should *not* do? Why not highlight safe alternatives? While I appreciated the information, I am not a user, and if I was, I would definitely read some source other than this one, which is too elementary for someone who needs dosage, cycle, manufacturer, and product identification information. While I can see why a primer would need to discuss steroids, at least in a cursory fashion, I don't see why they led off with the book's weakest point.
All in all, though, I find this a good book to have on my shelf.
MuscleTech, ooops, I mean MuscleMag May 28, 2004 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
It is no secret that MuscleMag International is nothing more than a soapbox for MuscleTech. Don't get me wrong, I used MuscleTech products and they worked for me. However, since there are no longer Nortesten and Anotesten (sorry if I misspelled) they have lost me as a customer. Try Universal Nutrition products, they are better anyway.
NOT FOR THE SEEKERS OF INFORMATION ABOUT STERIODS October 25, 2000 10 out of 12 found this review helpful
WHAT IS THAT YOU SAY? THE NAME SAYS ANABOLIC IN IT SO IT MUST CONTAIN INFORMATIN ABOUT STERIODS? NO SO MY FRIEND. I MEAN THERE ARE SOME STUFF ABOUT STERIODS IN IT,BUT YOU WOULD LEARN MORE BY VISITING A STERIOD WEB SITE. IF ON THE OTHER HAND, YOU ARE A NTURAL BODYBUILDER AND ARE LOOKING FOR WAYS TO PACK SIZE AND STRENGTH, TAKE GOOD SUPLMENTS OR THINGS LIKE THAT YOU COULD BUY THIS BOOK. ALTHOUGH, I WOULD LIKE TO REMIND YOU THAT MOST OF THE STUFF THAT THEY LOOK AT IN THIS BOOK ARE PRODUCTS THAT ARE EITHER MADE BY MUSCLEMUG OR THEY ARE THE ONES THAT SPONSER THE MAGAZINE, SO YOU CAN IMAGINE THAT THEY ARE NOT GOING TO GIVE YOU THE HARD FACTS BUT RATHER WHAT THE SPONSERS TELL THEM TO PUT IN.
Its pretty good October 11, 1999 7 out of 12 found this review helpful
This book deals with steroids on a very general basis. The information about other substances such as fat burning supplements is generally very well done. They're a lot of pictures, but they highlight the topics well. Overall its useful for its information on things other than steroids.
Too many pictuers and no detailed info October 3, 1999 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I wanted to learn more about steroids. Hands on info. Dosages, stacking etc. This book contains 5 pages about specific steroids. You would learn moreabout steroids in any SteroidSite. Too much personal comments from the author's rather than hard facts.
