Excellent: a clear testimony of Zane's intelligence

Fabulously Fit Forever is an excellent publication for any fitness conscious individual, regardless of age or gender. Zane clearly displayed his intellect and educational background in his explanations, giving the book an academic flavor. As a social psychologist, it was interesting how Zane incorporated Jungian Psycholgy into his outlook on bodybuilding. For someone familiar with Jungian Psychology, it was truly enlightening. One could also detect the influence of Freud in the publication.The publication clearly showed multifaceted bodybuilding is; reaching different dimensions for people with different needs. If there was one thing that Zane achieved in the publication, it was the fact that he shatterd the stereotype of bodybuilding as a "youthful" sport.The workout routines are marvalous, and I have incorporated many of Zane's exercises into my current routine. As a bodybuilder for 20 years, Fabulously Fit Forever still teaches valuable lessons to the "veterans" in the field. This is especially true when it comes to injuries and nutrition.Zane's philosophy is excellent, and one could tell a Buddhist influence in Zane. Though many readers may not embrace the philosophical aspects of the publication, Zane clearly showed the power of the mind in relation to the sport. As a psychologist, Zane clearly applied his academic knowledge to something empirical.If you are looking for bodybuilding hype, this is not the book for you. In terms of substance, it truly brings essence to the sport of bodybuilding. Zane is an excellent example of an intellectual bodybuilder.I would recommend Fabulously Fit Forever to anyone without reservation.

A Great Reference Book!

Frank Zane (Mr. Olympia 1977-78-79) wrote a great book!The book revolves around four major concepts: Exercise, Attitude, Rest and Nutrition. They are all equally important. No one should expect meaningful results excelling in one area and neglecting the others.I found the book inspiring and extremely useful for people of all walks of life (both men and women) I understand the reviewers that states that this not a "hardcore bodybuilder" book. Zane was a pioneer athlete that focused his entire and remarkable career in getting a proportionate body versus a huge one. This is a holistic approach to the sport. Zane still train hard and looks impressive beyond his fifties. Nevertheless, advanced and extremely demanding techniques are also available.I highly recommended this book if you want to be fit and healthy!

A true master of exercise selection

I found the routines in this book to be excellent in terms of exercise selection, technique, appropriate volume, frequency, aerobics, diet, etc. I wonder about the reviewer who said this book wasn't for the "hardcore bodybuilder"; sounds like that poor guy is more moved by mass monster pictures and hype than real content. Zane was and continues to be a pioneer in the bodybuilding world and is one of the few that can articulate his knowledge in this format. Three days after trying one of his workouts, that emphisize stretching between every set, I was still feeling that good pain that signals growth is in the making. His true mastery seems to be in exercise selection and order (his biceps exercise combinations are perfect). Not only that, but Zane outlines how bodybuilding interacts with psychological development, and outlines basic methods for using meditation to get the most out of bodybuilding and life. This from a reviewer who has read most of whats out there in bodybuilding literature, from Arnold to Mentzer, and now Zane. Zane is on par with Clarence Bass in his lack of hype and presentation of usable information; which is the highest complement I can give.

From the Master of bodybuilding, fitness, and the mind.

I found this book to be very informative, and took in aspects of getting in shape that most people don't even consider, like the connection your attitude, and your thoughts have on your ability to improve yourself. Mr. Zane covers many subjects from training equipment to nutritional advise that has worked for him, and training routines for a motivated kid to a senior. Mr. Zane states that he is over 50. Zane looks great over 50 or not! The photos prove it. Check it out.
