Big Book of Exercises Review,

Ce commentaire est de: The Men's Health Big Book of Exercises: Four Weeks to a Leaner, Stronger, More Muscular YOU! (Paperback)
This book provides everything you would want to know about exercise, diet, exercise myths, routines, and programs. The numerous pictures detail proper form in a clear way. I would highly recommend it to anyone considering, or involved with, exercise as it is clearly an important addition to any fitness library.

Ce commentaire est de: The Men's Health Big Book of Exercises: Four Weeks to a Leaner, Stronger, More Muscular YOU! (Paperback)
I've been using this book for about 3 weeks of going to the gym and with the variety or exercises it demonstrates I've not only been able to stay engaged and interested in the gym but I'm already seeing results in my core toning. I also feel as though it will take quite sometime until I "outgrow" it. I also ordered the womens version for my fiancee shortly after getting this one. Thanks Men's Health!

Ce commentaire est de: The Men's Health Big Book of Exercises: Four Weeks to a Leaner, Stronger, More Muscular YOU! (Paperback)
* Seek out the advice of a medical professional before beginning this or any exercise program. *The price of the book is a paltry sum compared to the value of the information contained inside it. The exercise photos and descriptions are clear and many variations of exercises are listed so it's easy to substitute based on available equipment or the trainee's ability and experience. Packed within the book are interesting sidebar notes referencing scientific studies. The chapter on "best workouts" is quite good as well providing plans for beginners, crowded gyms, body-weight and other goal specific endeavors. In addition, there is a chapter on warm up exercises, foam rolling (self myofascial release) and stretching with a template to create your own warm up routine. The book is an excellent place to start for beginners and there is definite value for those that are in the intermediate range as well. The men's and women's versions of the book are very similar. I flipped through the women's book and noted that the same exercises were found on the same pages. The "best workouts" chapters are different however. I give it 5 out of 5 barbells.
