Valuable and Instructive
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This is an excellent resource book. I've been lifting since 1987 and often get stuck in a rut. Sometimes I like to pick up a book like this as inspiration. While I had previously heard of most of these exercises (not the Bradford Press or the Suitcase Deadlift though) it was good to be reminded of their specifics. I liked the descriptions and also the pictures used for individual movements. The book provides solid and serious advice for beginning and intermediate weight lifters.
The title says it all!

This is a concise and straight forward text. The illustrations and context are simple. That is all you need. No wasted time with unnecessary information. That means more time to workout. Try also the other "Men's Health" books. These are the best I have read and are still using. I've been working out ever since high school, college, and into the present in lacrosse, Brazilian jiu jitsu, muay thai kick boxing, snowboarding and mountain biking. If you're not into reading long drawn out "how-to" books and want nothing but the meat and potatoes get to the point workout aides then this is it. Get it done and stay in shape with this! This is for weekend warriors to hard core health fanatics!
Gym rats handbook

This is a very helpful book to get some new routines into your gym workouts. The illustrations are really good and helps make use of the gym facilities. Being able to see which groups of exercises help to benefit the different muscle groups is very helpful. I've used this book to incorporate variety into the gym routine and my son hass checked it out and likes the ease of use with the book. The organization is very good for the novice or intermediate gym rat. If you don't have a personal trainer than this book will do the trick. Recommended for gym rats of all ages.
Great book for someone new to the gym
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This book has a wealth of information useful to someone who recently joined or is considering joining a gym. The book is well laid out and very easy to read. This book was perfect for me. The exercises are well illustrated. Information is presented concisely. The book is free of one person's opinions. Too much authoritative lecturing is a problem that plagues many books in this category. This book avoids that mistake. I can highly recommend this book to anyone who is considering joining a gym or already belongs to one and wants to maximize the benefits of membership.
thorough and informative

Men's Health Gym Bible educated me on what different gym equipment looked like, how to use them effectively, and how I could best use them to get specific body results. I needed this book to know how to use the gym since membership is not cheap and I dont want to throw away my money. I would highly recommend this book. It's inexpensive and very handy to anybody who needs to learn about gym equipment and how to put together a cusomized gym workout routine.
