A lot of info in there.

I love the magazine and the book is no different. Packed full of usefull information. I've been into fitness and bodybuilding for years so I was familiar with a lot of this stuff from the get go but still it is quite the handy little guide. Anyone looking to better their body will appreciate this book. I am a RN and found the anatomy lessons in this book were right on and should be easy for anyone to understand. Truly a great tool to add to anyones workout.

An excellent weight-training guild!

I bought this book over a year ago and have read and followed it ever since, and right now I'm in the best shape of my life so far. I believe I'm in a good position to write a review for it. What I like about the book is that: - It describes a large number of exercises in great detail (along with "make it easier" and "- harder" versions) - It included traditional as well as newer exercises - Useful for beginners as well as advanced lifters - Includes topics like nutrition, cardio-workouts, sports specific fitness etc. in reasonable details - The book doesn't make any unrealistic promises. (The results you achieve depend on the efforts you put in; a book can only guide you along the path) - Gives injury prevention tips - Makes an excellent reference guide - Although the title says "Men's health", it can be used by women too (My wife often looks up exercises from it) - Offers advice based on science-backed wisdom - Useful if you want to do strength/weight training (as opposed to ONLY bodybuilding) - Doesn't promote any brand-named products This book helped me a lot when I was a total beginner and I still look it up when I feel like changing my routine or to check if my form is correct. Although I have used other fitness books, this book remains the backbone of my lifting plan. Over all, I'll highly recommend this book if you are serious about fitness and weight-training, even if you are a beginner.

Lift and Lose

This book is full of useful and accurate information. It is well-organized and well-written. The book is full of useful advice such as "the fastest way to lose weight is to spend a lot more time in the weight room." p. 314). (As opposed to cardio).

One of the best weight-training references for non-competitive weightlifters

This book is exactly what I've been looking for. As an ex-college athlete, I still play in three sports in amateur city leagues and take fitness very seriously. Prior to getting this book my main lifting regimen was basically the same as I did while in college, without the supervision. I basically hit a plateau and improvements were hard to come by. Since getting this book, I've jazzed up my lifting routine a lot. A vast variety of exercises a presented for every muscle group, and there is very good literature on the physiology of the muscles for optimal results. The weekly plans are a good trade-off of quality and quantity, with good variation to hit all muscle groups and have enough recuperation time between. I do not like the previous review stating that the models in the book had skinny legs. As a matter of fact, I thought the models looked very athletic. The athletic build is very different from a power-lifter or weight-lifter build. Bulky legs with fat calves and a small acheles heel seen on a lot of weightlifters actually hinder athletic ability (agility). Though the extra literature on body types, sport related workouts, back pain etc where sparse compared to core workouts, I still found the info very useful for people involved in weight-lifting not only for bulky muscles, but for everyday muscular efficiency. I think the exercises and plans in this book will suit anyone who wants to look athletic with reasonable size (not overly hunky), and also be able to apply the size/strength gained in everyday activities and athletics. Five stars all the way.
