Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding

Great book.. so easy to follow

Absolutely Great

I always wanted this one, I used to read it in bookshops and get a proper pump in my arm holding it up for 20 mins. The hardback was too pricey for me back then. Great read. Very inspirational and a lot to make you really think. Some of his views are maybe a bit un-scientific and unsubstantiated here and there but it obviously worked for him, but maybe not you! A must-read, though alongside other material of course, still good though, I don't think we know too much more, even now. Reassuringly a dab of mayonnaise and a smidgeon of butter is permitted in some of the meal plans even though it is on a banned list 2 pages later, whatever.

A really informative and highly detailed book.I have only recently started out keeping fit(last 6 months) and trying to tone up, this book will provide loads of exercises, to many for me to try at the moment. but I can see this being a very usefully manual on how to do certain routines and focus on certain parts of the body.With the progress of time we can see that quite a lot of body builders have possibly pushed themselves to far, as quite a few seem to have heart problems. I won't be doing that level of punishment they used to do, but If one wishes to do this, this book will provide them with a great deal of help.

This book is a must have for anyone who is into bodybuilding in a big way. It covers everything from the history of bodybuilding to anatomy, from workout plans to pre contest diets it's all in here. The book itself is huge and over 700 pages long, it's full of photos, pictures, anatomical charts and drawings. If you only ever buy one book about bodybuilding this is the one - Arnolds Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding is a masterpiece. 5 STARS *
