5 out of 5 - November 03, 2004
This is a book that does exactly what it says
on the cover, if you want a training program that is safe
and gives you maximum gains then this book is it. Unless you
are already a serious body builder then I think anyone who
lifts weights who hasn't had an instructor can benefit from
this book. If you've been the type who has pulled out "build
killer arms" programs etc from magazines and tried to
patch together a program then this is a great place to start
and put it all together and throw away some of the myths.
It teaches you the basic principles which is REST is as important
as exercise and focus and intensity and good form is more
important than the actual weight you lift. It teaches you
not in its text but by the program is set for you. This is
not a wordy book but there are million words of good advice
in the programs themselves and your body will show you the
results.
It also works on the big compound exercises
such as squats, bench press etc and doesn't put to much focus
on isolation exercises. I know that one reviewer said that
this program misses out whole body parts for a week at a time.
This is not true, as the big compound exercise work all the
major muscle groups and as a beginner this is what you should
be focusing on. Even Arnold says that all body builders should
start the first few years on the big traditional compound
exercises so if your starting out and are serious about lifting
weights this is as good a book to start as anywhere. If you
think there is not enough isolation exercises or bicep curls
etc, your wrong you don't need them, all you will do by focusing
on isolation exercises is injure yourself.
What's also great about the program is that
most of the sessions are only 45 mins long so most ordinary
working people can do it without taking away all their free
time . My only criticism of it is that in order to get the
most out in terms of gains and safety you should buy another
book that shows you correct form and how to ensure you don't
injure yourself when training to failure. This book can't
be everything and although it does give you a run down of
the exercises I would say buying something like "the
insiders tell-all handbook on weight-training technique"
would be the icing on the cake and the killer combination.
With regards the weight lost aspect that it
sells a lot. this is not strictly true and I just think its
gone on the marketing band wagon here which is a shame as
this book has so much to offer in its own right. If you have
a weight problem this book will not stop you from over eating
or help you lose a lot of weight. But what it will do is give
you more pride in your body and make you stronger and fitter
which may give you the motivation to lose weight.
This is not your typical "Juicer"
program and there is no muscles freaks showing you how to
do the exercises, promising you muscles you have no chance
of getting without chemical enhancement and 5 hrs in gym everyday.
This book is for those 99% of us who want to gain muscle and
do it as quick and as SAFE as possible while still being able
to live our everyday lives, the best of it's kind and a must
for anyone starting off in the gym.
