Lee Haney remains numero uno,
By
This review is from: Lee Haney's Ultimate Bodybuilding Book: The 8-time Mr. Olympia's Revolutionary Program for Building Mass, Strength and Power (Paperback)
This quality book by a quality gentleman who just happens to be the most prolific Mr. Olympia is the kind of book that needs to be read if you're serious about a serious subject. I recommend that you get the Lee Haney videos which can accentuate what this book displays page after page. I now tape him on cable [ch. 19, in Fort worth] and he's got to put more about mind, body and spirit in one half-hour than anyone. Since he autographed my copy to my son and me at the one chance I had to hear him speak, it's priceless. He remains "TotaLee Awesome"!

Way too hardcore,

This review is from: Lee Haney's Ultimate Bodybuilding Book: The 8-time Mr. Olympia's Revolutionary Program for Building Mass, Strength and Power (Paperback)
This book is definitely not for beginners or even intermediate or advanced bodybuilders. It is for the pros! The routine is Haney's own and is way too much for normal people. Besides, each person's body is unique and will require a different routine to build mass. Try "Weider's System of Bodybuilding" for a more personalized approach.

Great Stuff,
By Ray Smith (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lee Haney's Ultimate Bodybuilding Book: The 8-time Mr. Olympia's Revolutionary Program for Building Mass, Strength and Power (Paperback)
Forget Schwarzenegger's "Encyclopedia of Modern Bobybuilding," Mike Mentzer's "Heavy Duty," or Dorian Yates's "Blood and Guts." This is THE book to have for increasing srength and health via weightlifting--simple, effective, no nonsense. And Haney's workouts for his celebrity clients--among them Evander Holyfield--provides interesting reading.
