Not essential for athletes,

This review is from: Gold's Gym Mass Building Training and Nutrition System (Gold's Gym Series) (Paperback)
I bought this book in hopes of adding some knowledge about strength and conditioning. After I read some of it, I realised it was aimed more for the body builders not sportsmen. Too much bulk turns a lean mean fighting machine into a scultured bubblerap

2.0 out of 5 stars
to focused on pro side of bodybuilding,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Gold's Gym Mass Building Training and Nutrition System (Gold's Gym Series) (Paperback)
the book contained good exercises, but all are available in any book or from anyone in a gym you ask, the routines were to complicated and not enough attention paid to them, escpecially for beginners or intermediates, the book focused to much on bodybuilding for pro's. if your a beginner or intermediate bodybuilder find a better book you'll only be disapointed with this, especially since the author spends a large proportion of the time talking about previous or current bodybuilders, i didnt buy the book to read about other people, the nutrition section is also useless.....i recommend one of arnies books

Very comprehensive book on bodybuilding,
By dasn0wman "dasn0wman" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Gold's Gym Mass Building Training and Nutrition System (Gold's Gym Series) (Paperback)
This is by far the most comprehensive book on bodybuilding that I read and possibly even more so than Arnold's "Encyclopedia of Bodybuilding". The exercises are grueling, no doubt. But you better be hardcore if you are reading this book. Very good chapter on nutrition. Many books forget that this is a key to getting huge. The part it talks about different types of bodybuilders, it does not give enough information on determining if one is a slow-gainer. This type will have to train slowly and work up. Otherwise, excellent book on this topic.

Great Book,
By Robert A. Sklenarik - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Gold's Gym Mass Building Training and Nutrition System (Gold's Gym Series) (Paperback)
If your looking for a mass building book that will cover the topic completely look no further. It isn't the most recent book written on the topic but the information given is timeless. What I liked about this book was how realistic it was. Some books I've read on mass building tell you to eat 5000 calories a day and work out like an animal. This is an over simplification of the topic that is over come by this incredible text.
