Product Description
In "The Men's Health Gym Bible", certified strength and conditioning coach Mike Mejia and magazine contributor Myatt Murphy instruct readers in the optimal use of a gym for strength training and cardiovascular fitness. The authors advise both novices and long time gym rats on: how to choose the right personal trainer; the value of group fitness classes-and how to fit them into any workout schedule; and, how to design a gym program that meets personal fitness goals. Packed with hundreds of photographs that demonstrate proper technique for every piece of equipment found in the typical gym, "The Men's Health Gym Bible" is the must-have accessory for every gym membership. There is simply no other book on the market that so comprehensively and expertly addresses the needs of gym enthusiasts.

Format:Paperback
Great book with a wide range of gym exercises using both free weights and machines. Easy to follow, well written and illustrated. There's no need to get bored doing the same gym exercises week after week. Highly recommended.

Format:Paperback
I am quite experienced with weights now and was basically looking for a book full of exercises to vary my routine a bit. The first chapters talk about "what to look for in a gym" and things like that, which is obviously targeted at a complete novice. As it goes on, there are hundreds of exercises throughout, well illustrated and explained, and suggestions about what exercises you should be doing depending on your experience. The back also includes workout logs and routines you could try depending on your goal. I would definately say its as close to a gym bible as you are going to get and would advise this to complete beginners or more experienced trainers looking to tweak their routine and increase their gains.
