The drawings in this book are certainly some of the best I've seen in this category.

In terms of content, this book is divided into various body parts namely arms, shoulders, chest, back, legs, buttocks and abdomen. There are more than 10 exercises under each section. For each body part, a series of exercises highlighting the muscles involved are presented. All active muscles are highlighted and the passive ones are labelled as well. Note accompany the drawings to provide instructions on how each exercise should be performed.

Both male and female bodies are featured. Exercises featured include those using free weights and machines. After reading this book, anyone interested in strength training (not necessarily serious bodybuilding) should be able to choose a few exercises that will suit his/her needs. No need for expensive gym equipment or memberships. The book shows us that some highly effective exercises can be performed at home or the children's playground.

Once again, the drawings are simply awesome. A great reference book for anyone who is intrested in strength training.

What Your Doctor Doesn't Know About Nutritional Medicine May Be Killing You

This is an excelent book to have in mind and not only on your book shelf,i strongly recommend it for those who really intersted in bodybuilding. But the only thing that i didn't enjoy is that it doesnt tell you the muscle that does most of the work for an excercise. For instance in bench press, it highlights all the chest muscle and doesnt specify the middle one.

This is one of the best weight training guides that I've found. The art illustrations are beautiful and very educational and it is an excellent technique guide as well. I refer to it several times a week for tips and ideas about my workouts. There is a significant amount of detailed information that will help weight lifters and fitness buffs no matter their skill or fitness goals. I highly recommend it for technique, variety and injury avoidance.

A must have for body builders or for someone who is looking to learn more about the anatomy of muscle building and proper exercice. I use this book as a regular reference while working out to help me remain focused on the muscles i am working out. And helps to depict what muscles i am trying to work. EXCELLENT! 10*'s
