3.0 out of 5 stars Great if you've never lifted a dumb-bell before., 8 Dec 1998
By A Customer
I bought this book thinking I'd get a vast array of new exercises, as well as new techniques for increasing muscle mass. I'm not a bodybuilder, but I've been working out 3-4 times per week for about 7 months, and prior to that, off and on for about 5 years. So I know the basics, proper form, etc. And the 70+ exercises in the book would be well-known to any beginner. If this was the book I bought when I just started working out, I'd rate it five stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Every Fitness Enthusist and Professional Should Read, 31 Dec 1998
By A Customer
As a manger of a large personal training department, I cringe every time I see most trainers teach technique to their clients. I am dismayed when I see old and unsafe exercises such as behind the neck pull downs and shoulder presses are performed. Everett has illustrated in a concise and easy to understand format how to effectively train the entire musculature of the human body. Every personal trainer and serious weight lifter should read this fine publication. Scott McLain, MA- Personal Training Manager Westerville Athletic Club

5.0 out of 5 stars A complete guide to specific muscle exercises, 17 April 1999
By A Customer
No intimidating photos of overdeveloped bodybuilders! This book shows how to correctly perform some 73 different exercises for a full body workout, complete with an anatomy diagram showing which muscles are worked in each exercise. This book has been a great aid to me in designing a variety of workouts with different exercises (to prevent boredum) to target all the muscles for an efficient full body workout. I have shown this book to several friends, that are into self improvement, and they have all purchased it.
