    User Ratings and Reviews

    5 Stars One of the best
    For those ones that are looking for acquire knowledge or for those that already have a good knowledge about body-building this is the book, it cover from very first basic trainings, passing through advanced and competition ones, as do your diet, poses and many more. Is a very, very complete book. The revision was up to 1999/2000, though still very actual. For those body-building lovers is a must.

    5 Stars Excellent for beginners
    This book is excellent for aspiring bodybuilders who wish to get a foundation started. Some of the techniques and methods are outdated or no longer used, but it’s mainly only the abs being everyday.

    5 Stars Arnold’s tome
    This is a big, heavy book. It is old school Arnold and goes into great detail on everything. Certainly the pictures go back to Arnold’s heyday and are not reflective of the real scary looking bodybuiders of today. I recommend it to those of us who have out grown Arnold’s slimmer bodybuilding for Men and want some more variations on appropriate exercises.

    5 Stars Very good product
    This is the mother of all books or guides about body building. It covers everything you need to know about the subject. New developments, equipment, etc., have been made in the sport since the publication of the book, but it’s still a great reference. If you apply its contents, you WILL get results.

    5 Stars Excellent!
    It’s exactly what I was looking for, a book written by a master of bodybuilding, who is willing to let you know the details of his experiences, and what really works in order to achieve the best body.
