This is as good a book as I have seen on the subject. Bob Paris is as intelligent as he is well-built, and he knows how to assist others who need sound advice to improve their health and physiques.
Format:Paperback
If your serious about getting into shape, not necessarily sculpting your body (excellent for this as well), this is a down to earth guide to achieving results. It covers all aspects, i.e. routines, frequency, nutrition etc.
No frills, no nonsense, just a basic guide to achieving real results from someone who has been there & done that....

Well written. Easy to follow
5 Jun 2007
Format:Paperback
If your looking a good solid bodybuilding training program, this is a great book. There's nothing really special about the program but it's all laid out for you. If you can't or don't want to develop your own program or pay a personal trainer, this is a good book for you. It has workouts for beginners, intermediate, and advanced bodybuilders. You can't go wrong following the program in this book. Again, it's nothing special but is a good buy.

Good book to learn from
14 Feb 2010
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I bought this book after I had watched one of the Jay Cutlers bodybuilding videos and he said that he had read this book and it really helped him when he got started in bodybuilding, so I figured it would be a good book to start with. I've been lifting for about 4-5 years but had never really any clue what I was doing as well as what kind of diet I needed in order to achieve results that I wanted. This book put alot of things in perspective for me. This book explained how to do the exercises, nutrition, grooming, posing and he even gives individual routines for every body part. I loved this book I learned its not about how much you lift, its about how you lift. Leave ego at the door. I started his routines 3 weeks ago (from today) and have noticed some strength and muscle gains. His routines do work, if done right.
The reason this book didn't receive 5 stars is because there were still a few questions I had after reading it. I also felt the book kind of skipped around and left alot out of specific sections. In one section he gives you a back routine but leaves out the rep-ranges. Luckily his system is easy to extrapolate from and incorporate into other routines so it wasn't too much of a pain to figure out. Other than that I find myself constantly referring back to this book when I have a question or need guidance. I plan on buying his other book "Flawless."

Timeless information

For anyone who wants to get it right, this book nails it from technique to nutrition with a great deal of motivation thrown in on practically every page. If the reader is a beginner wanting to just get a few muscles to shape up or wanting to become a serious bodybuilder, what Bob has to say from genuine experience is spot on. Bob's philosophy as to what a perfect body looks like would not win any competition today because he would never accept the freaky disproportionate sizes needed to win, the solid foundation of body building taught in this book is there for anyone. This is the complete book.
