GREAT book for adding weight training to fitness program
Format: Paperback
Get this book! Really helpful for understanding how to add weights to exercise program. (+) nicely organized - easy to read, not too wordy, chock full of helpful info, nice use of pics; anatomy sketches are beautiful & useful to see what areas are being targeted; GREAT for post meno women but also for younger women (AND gives them things to think about as they age); good mix of exercises.. warm-ups/ stretches, free weights, machine assisted weights, and calisthenics.. tho most is weights, which is good. I had gotten another book "anatomy for strength & fitness training" but didn't like it because the exercises were far too simple.. more like exercises for PT / recovery. (-) only complaint.. spiral binding PLS!! ... show more

Great resource (in spite of the chauvinism)
Format: Paperback
So, I saw a review before I bought that book that referenced the book being condescending to women, and I have to say I agree. It’s in serious need of a consult and edit from a modern woman. Some representation of diversity would be nice. But—that said—it’s an incredibly informative and thorough book and will be a useful tool for me as I focus on building my strength routine. The exercises represent a nice mix of no-equipment on up to gym machines with levels and variations for all. Illustrations are informative and make sense if you’ve had any experience with weight training. There’s room to grow with the routines and programs provided, so I’m happy with the purchase. Just need to overlook the writing about women wanting to have beautiful bodies with arched backs that make their chests stick out, and rounded derrières, and how we don’t want too much definition because it’s not aesthetically pleasing if we get too toned or defined. To the author, I’d be delighted to consult with you on how to make this book a true resource for healthy women! In the meantime, ignore the chauvinist commentary and you’ll find this useful. ... show more

delavier delivers!
Format: Paperback
the detail in this manual is really excellent. i think the writing style is easy to follow, but still packed with info. i do find it hilarious how offended people are by some of the author's comments -- he's french for crying out loud! i think it's, if anything, a cultural difference -- not anything like the chauvinism people are accusing him of in some of these reviews! just my opinion. i recommend it if you want detailed info on strength training and proper form. i thought i would be bored to tears, but in fact I am learning so much and really enjoying this book! highly recommend. ... show more

Excellent Strength Training Book for Women
Format: Paperback
This is by far my favorite strength training book that I have read or that I own. One of the most popular reviews of this book lambasts it for being more or less sexist and condescending. You know, as a woman who does consider herself a feminist, I actually have to respectfully disagree with that assessment. Having read the passages in question, the authors do mention that they can point you to exercises to do if the appearance of wearing high heels without actually having to do it is your goal, or to exercises that would produce a more natural spine alignment. It seemed to me more about giving options based on opinions about aesthetics. For me, personally, I think feminism shouldn't have to exclude any idea about wanting to be attractive to prospective or current mates. I've been married nearly 13 years, and I'm going to be 40 in less than 2 months, and recently my hubby told me he thought I looked stunning. I'm not going to lie, I loved that, because it matters to me that my mate finds me attractive and at my age, I don't take those kind of compliments for granted anymore. And I believe strength training has a vital role in that. It also helps me to de-stress and maintain my health goals. And that, if anything, would be my one criticism of this book, but I think it applies to many of the fitness books on the market. I think more of the emphasis should be on health. Looking the best a person can brings confidence, but age will usually remove one by one the things our society values as attractive. But higher levels of physical fitness are great for maintaining health and well being. Also, other reviewers have noted that this book heavily encourages gym equipment over free weights. This is certainly true, however, it does explain in great detail how to do all of the exercises with free weights if this is your choice, as it is mine. Owing to the personal circumstances of our family, working out at a gym doesn't work for me. Because I recognize that they recommend the gym equipment usually because it comes with a decreased risk of injury for beginners, I wasn't personally bothered by their repeated advice on that, especially since the explanations for the free weights was quite well done. Overall, I think this is an excellent book for women who are interested in strength training. ... show more
