4.0 out of 5 stars Right on Target!, 15 Jun 2004
By A Customer
Reviewer: Sherri A. Wilcox

I am a 44 yr old woman, and I went through the 12-week plan in Volume I twice, and then bought Volume II. Still trying to get my husband to try it! The ONLY reason that I did not give it 5 stars was because the new book is not spiral bound like the first volume. Use it at the gym, but where do you keep your pen? I love both books; they got me into a consistent workout routine. The workouts are definitely progressive (they get a little tougher and they vary each week) as they should to keep you improving.
This is not an all-encompassing health and well-being book (as it sounds some other reviewers were looking for)it is a simple straight-forward workout book. Follow it exactly, as you would a trainer standing there coaching you - don't cut corners! There is no math to figure, no advance planning, no complicated formulas. JUST DO IT! And then record your progress and watch yourself become sculpted and strong! Then keep the book, because in the future you will want to go back and select a weeks-worth of workouts to repeat.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE RETURN OF THE KING!, 20 April 2004
By A Customer
James Orvis has done it again by providing the people with what they want....expert advice, instruction, and a functional manual to take it all with you anywhere!!!! In short he does what evey other exercise book doesn't or won't......he tells you exactly what to do!!!!! That includes; how many sets, reps, and proper form hints.

Best of all, once again, NO NO NO NO NO math, funky tables, or guesswork!!!! The only thing better than this or book one is to have a trainer right there with you to do the exact same thing....tell you what to do, how to do it, and for how long. The difference? James Orvis gives it to you for alot less money! Face it he is the King and no one beats him. I've read em all and still do and while every book out there tries to put a new spin on weight training they still won't ever never ever tell you this is it! This is what you do for the next 8-12 weeks period!!!!! Instead they fill their books with options, charts, graphs personal philosophies, and the biggest charletains of all.....supplement company recommendations?????!!!!!!!!!! At that point I really toss the other books against the wall, good and hard, before they land in the dumpster!!!! I mean come on! In todays fast paced world everyone everyhwere is getting back into the resurgence of the total body 15 or 20 or 30 minute workout in local gyms across America. James Orvis did it for you before, for any gym at a much lower price and now he is doing it again!!!!!
I cannot tell you how many personal trainers have seen me with Book 1, getting results, and tried to not only sneak a peak but sell me on the idea they could do better.....FAT CHANCE and even if they could not at this price!!!!!!!! I've even purposely left it on lunch tables at my job for 10-20 min only to have the "discoverers" beg me to lend them the book or make copies on a daily basis...NO WAY! Jimmy JAMES Orvis Congratulations! Again!!! on providing myself and millions of others with exactly what we always wanted........
A DEFINITIVE BLUEPRINT OF WHAT TO DO WHEN WE GET TO THE GYM WITHOUT ANY INTERFERENCE OR COSTLY HELP OR, IF YOU WILL, THE CURE FOR THE MOST BASIC FUNDAMENTAL REASON PEOPLE HAVE FOR NOT GOING TO THE GYM.....WHAT WILL I DO WHEN I GET THERE? HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE? HOW MANY SETS/REPS? AM I DOING THIS RIGHT?
IT'S ALL HERE!!!!!!

PS--For those people who prefer to collect or follow books that are shall we say "more flexible"=wishywashy. Contain tons of data on building the perfect abs or biceps, supplements, philosophies, scientific studies, tons of pictures, personal interviews with competitive pros, posters, dieting tricks, etc. In short all you gym rats with no life outside of the gym, gobbling down supplements (or worse)dreaming of a flawless image you saw in a magazine or the aforementioned books ...Don't read this book! It's too simplistic or basic for you. It would only shatter your idea that fitness should always be a part of your lifestyle and not your whole life! Plus worst of all gym rat fears....You'd only be outside in the real world among the rest of us alot faster with terrific results to boot if you did! No mad science here! Just like the title says.....these are simply "WEIGHT TRAINING WORKOUTS THAT WORK"!!!!!!!
