I've been working out and playing sport for many years now and as such have taken great interest in training techniques.
This book might prove useful to someone who has never stepped inside a gym in their life, though I doubt it! The work out exercises are all very basic (squats, bench press, DB curl), with nothing to add variety if you are already a frequent gym attendee.
Whilst these exercises might be good for the complete novice, the photographs illustrating the moves are laughably amateur, and completely un-inspirational, which, for most novices, is probably as necessary as basic nutrition and work out exercises. The layout of the book is drab and actively works against the reader spending any time trying to discover any worthwhile information from its pages. I'm sure the nutrition section is fine, unfortunately, I wasn't paying too much attention by then!!!
Without doubt, THE most un-inspirational physical fitness book I have had the displeasure of opening. I would think that the trades' description act should be invoked against the title!!

I have been training on and off for about 5 years now. I bought the book because I thought it would help me get into peak physical shape and help me sculpt my body. Initially it worked wonders for me, however I have to say that performing the same exercises every second session has become a bit boring. It would have added more value to the book if they had two or three alternative exercise plans to follow. I also found it very difficult to follow the eating plan as all the quantities are in ounces, perhaps a conversion to grams would have been appropriate.
All in all though I have to admit that I have seen results that I had not been able to achieve before. This book is good to start off with and needs to be followed up with another book, which takes your results to the next level.

As a regular at the gym for the past ten years I thought I had all the tools needed to train my body and get in the sort of shape I always wanted to be, and had previously been in (in my youth). This may have been more or less true but putting these into practice and staying motivated was a struggle for me. I also didn't know what to believe about eating well, Atkins, High carb diets, no dairy...which is best??
Since buying this book however I have found a new enthusiasm for training. The authors have clearly been there, seen it and done it and they offer very frank and concise advice about how to train properly. They cover everything from finding a gym, choosing a workout, exercise form, diet plans....all the typical training stuff you'd expect but they also go the extra yard. They talk about the pros and cons of supplements, problems and consequences of over training, they even go as far as discussing the best way of ridding yourself of pesky body hair to see your newly developed muscles (if that's you kind of thing!)
I genuinely can't recommend this book enough and would give it 10 out of 5 if possible. 3 months after starting and sticking to their advanced workout plan I had lost 3 stone, 6 inches from my waist, my flabby, tired face was back to the one I remember and I was feeling great. I'm glad to say I've sustained these results since then. It's all thanks to this book. Well worth a read!!
