an excellent book
May 12 2004
Format:Paperback
This is a very good book. I read the ratings here and decided to get the book. Isn't it the right choice!
If you only need one body building book, it is this one. I am 32 years old and I increasingly began to realize the importance of correct form and safty. This book drives those concepts home! I also bought his other book on correct forms. These books are definitely keepers!
Grab this book, it'll change your life!!

Throw away all those useless bodybuilding mags and get yourself a true lifechanging experience. This book teaches you everything you need to know to build the best body your gentices will allow. All this without having to live in the gym and spend tons of money on useless supplements. The author is frank and down to earth and it's almost like having your mentor guiding you to success. This book is an absolute must have, regardless of your level of training experience. what have you got to lose, you can return the book for a refund ot the publisher if you are not satisfied. also read what the other reviewers have written. This book has taught millions of ppl to finally get RESULTS from training. and isn't that what training is all about?
Highly recommended

I am amazed that some people who read this book don't "get it". If you are not making gains on this system..you are not trying.
This is the best book on strength training ever written. It tells the truth on how to actually get bigger and stronger.
I speak from 20 years of training experience and as a competitve bodybuilder. This is the text I wish I had read when I started training in 1975.
I spent years wasting my time with 6 days a week training. What a waste. 60 sets of chest...60 sets of legs..3 times a week! The only way I could do it is work and live in the gym (and I did for 10 years)..and I still never got "big" like I wanted. In 18 years of full time lifting I gained about 25lbs, with 15 inch arms.
If you only owned one book about training this would be it.
99% of most "authorites" and personal trainers do not understand proper training or how to make real consistent progress.
I made more gains in 6 months on this program than I had made in the last 10 years. I figured I was "doomed" to be 160lbs to 165lbs forever. Muscular, but still only 165 lbs (for over 15 years despite lifting daily). This book took me to 189lbs in 6 months. No bull, no nonsense. My arms are now 17". You can do it too!
I never thought I could get any bigger..I thought I had "topped out" years ago..I was wrong. Get this book. It's for real.

Waste of time and money
I found this book and the first Brawn a waste of time. I'm sorry I wasted 3 years lifting using these techniques. This book will not do anything for you. Read more

Good but severely redundant
I really wanted to write a nice review of this book, having read BRAWN earlier (by the same author) and being an advocate of the High-Intensity principles (HIT) of weightlifting. Read more

It's OKAY
The book isn't bad. I got it and am struggling to finish it. It's drawn out and boring. He repeats and plugs his other books throughout the book. Read more
