Summary: A Solid and worth while book
Comment: This book is not one of my favorites but is a great resource. This book has a lot of great ideas but in my opinion does have some flaws. There is a section on cardio and eating which is good, the workout programs in the book are good but not my favorite. Over all I would say this bood is a worth while book on strength training and most people would learn at least something from the book to make it worth your money.

Summary: A lot of info in there.
Comment: 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.

Summary: An excellent weight-training guild!
Comment: 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.

This program replaces outdated myths with the newest findings at the vanguard of the strength-training world. Readers will discover:
   • how to add as much as 50 pounds to their bench press in just 12 weeks, with no single workout session taking longer than 30 minutes
   • hundreds of exercise variations and information on tailoring workouts to one’s body type, lifestyle, and goals
   • definitive answers to dozens of fitness debates, such as: Can you get an aerobic workout by lifting faster? Does the "slow burn" technique work? What’s the best time of day to lift? In addition to exercises for each muscle group, there are sections devoted to flexibility, cardio workouts, nutrition, and sports performance.
