Format:Paperback
Just about everything you ever wanted to know about dumbbells. The book is divided up into three parts. The first part, the truth about dumbbells, explains all about the different types of dumbbells. The second part, the master moves, shows you the exercises you can do with a dumbbell which includes many pictures and instructions. This part makes up about 80% of the book. And finally, part three, a million moves for your muscles, essentially provides the reader with tips and suggested routines.
A great resource if you're into dumbbells, readers who lift regularly might also be interested in Treat Your Own Rotator Cuff to prevent rotator cuff tears a lot of lifters eventually get.

This book might be useful for absolute beginners. Anyone who has ever lifted a dumbbell may be disppointed to find that there are only a few 'real' exercises illustrated. The multitude of exercises that are promised turn out to be 'variations on a theme' - now try while standing on one leg, etc.
Overall, disappointing for a book that promised thousands of exercises.

I don't know about the other guy - I suppose the "thousands of exercises" thing is a little gimmicky but all in all it provides easy to follow instructions and exercises for someone starting out, and room to grow when needing more. I have no bench and one set of dumbbells and I found the book versatile enough to provide alternatives to fit my situation. I'd recommend.
