Product Description
Certain to become the bible of HIT-the training that revolutionized lifting with shorter, far-more-intense workouts-this impassioned guide is the last word on how to achieve explosive growth safely, without steroids!
For many dedicated bodybuilders, the weight-lifting theories of Arthur Jones are gospel. It was Jones, the inventor of Nautilus exercise equipment, who first discovered that short, intense workouts could produce better results than the long, high-volume workouts then in vogue.
Even though research into Jones's methods has proved them correct, a number of high-profile strength coaches use HIT to train their athletes, and the bodybuilding magazine Ironman does HIT-based features every issue, there still are no major HIT books in stores. This new book-by champion bodybuilder, exercise researcher, and best-selling author Ellington Darden, who is a Jones disciple and friend-shows lifters how to apply the master's teachings, along with some new HIT concepts to achieve extraordinary results.
At the heart of the book is a complete, illustrated, six-month course for explosive growth. Exercise by exercise, workout by workout, the reader is shown precisely what to do, and perhaps even more important, what not to do. Charging that too many bodybuilders follow a more-is-better approach-too many exercises, too many sets, and too much frequency-and rely on steroids to compensate for depleted recovery ability, Darden shows why HIT, steroid-free and healthy, is the best way to safely build muscle. Finally, the exercise religion Arthur Jones founded, and Darden fine-tuned, has its bible.

Great Book,

This review is from: The New High Intensity Training: The Best Muscle-Building System You've Never Tried (Paperback)
I bought this book from Amazon about 3 years ago as a way to introduce myself to weight training. I followed the directions pertaining to form and also the lenght of time for each rep and rest time. You do reps slowly in the HIT method which is very good for preventing injury and learning to do the exercises correctly. I was able to put on quite a bit of muscle and loads of definition. The only thing that i did not like about the training method is its lack of cardio.

Revolutionary,
This review is from: The New High Intensity Training: The Best Muscle-Building System You've Never Tried (Paperback)
This book has changed my whole view on bodybuilding, I tested it, and continue using it because IT WORKS!!! This is the way everybody should train, if they have the guts to do it!!! It is very logical and simple and quick, but to get the most out of it, it has to be INTENSE!!! A must read for all serious bodybuilders.

All I will say is that there are hundreds of better options for educational bodybuilding reading out there. Try "The Book of Muscle" or "The Encyclipedia of Bodybuilding".
