Muscle A-Z almost complete by Bob Kenedy by ZAMBONI ROBB (USA)  5 Stars
April 12, 2009
Kennedy does/ has done a good job of covering most of what you want to know about bodybuilding with articles and photos of well known current Pro BB from around the world. For those that want to know more of what a pro life style is like this book provides some of the answers of what ones must do and scarifice to get at the pro level. Looking at the pictures you can see that many are of the current freaker muscle type achieve through the assist of steroids which is basically covered in the book- not a lot of depth here as to what really goes on to make it to this level of BB, which has always had a no tell policy on what one must do to bring it to the edge at the pro level.
On the history of BB the major players like Arnold is covered (known steroid user who had his pic removed from the Gold's Gym- guess he doesn't wnat to be remember as such) while leaving out such greats as Bob Paris, who lets you see the other side of BB in his book "Gorilla Suit- My Adventures in Bodybuilding", not just the idealistic views we get from the media and the BB mags.
The book is well worth the money for what you can get it on line, it will inspire anyone trying to body shape themselves, and insider look of how to get there, but not a complete one even with all the photos and well written 800 pages.

I loved this book by Burak Begen (Cleveland, OH) 5 Stars
January 27, 2009
I still don't own this book and that's a shame. I read it every time (1-2 a week) I go to Barnes and Noble and I truly love it. It has great and lots of information. Some parts might be intended for beginners but others help people like me to who like to create their own workouts, learn about the science behind and more on nutrition. It defines different training types (21s, Pyramids, Super Sets, Trisets, Giantsets, etc) clearly and tells their benefits and how to use them. It describes a lot of things scientifically. It also has a sample workouts from the best in the business. Every person has a unique body so you can't just use the same workout for everyone and expect the same results. So, you have to try different things to see which is best for yourself and this book helps you by giving variety and lots of ideas. I would definitely recommend if you like working out with weights - you don't even have to be a body builder.
