Value for money November 2, 2009 J. Clarke 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I recommend this book to anyone who want a very clear view of
how different exercises work different muscles.
Great addition to anyone's collection.
Good Book October 26, 2009 J. Penate (San Francisco, CA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book has very good information on the muscle group that is used when doing a particular exercise. It works every muscle group you have, from the neck to your toes. The only downfall I see about this book is that its ONLY a informative book. Meaning, it doesnt tell you how many sets to do, the schedule you should go with, or how intense the exercise is. But it will be useful for the experienced lifter, but for the rookie like me, I would need a little more guidence. Im sure it will be more useful when I know what exercises and sets I have to work with.
Awesome!!! October 23, 2009 D. Jennings 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
If you are wanting to work out and need to know about almost any exercise you need this book. Shows you how and why. All you need to know is in this book.
Helpful for understanding science not body building September 5, 2009 S. Sreedharan (NJ, USA) 0 out of 9 found this review helpful
This book just details the muscles that get engaged when performing an exercise. It doesn't really talk about how many times we should workout in a week, what to eat, how to combine exercise etc...all that is in the book is just the exercises and a small explanation on the muscles that is engaged while performing the workout.
I would not recommend this to people trying to develop their body and needing a guide.
