Read the reviews about this book. Frankly- - I don't see how anyone could leave a negative review & not benefit. What I got from Jim's book- is quite alot .... in the aspect he gives an entire years program...( 4 - 12 week sub work outs- changes every 3 months) starts off simple then to a combined-/ examples of muscle confusion full body and If one follows it- should have wonderful results! Trick is.... if you want something bad enough you have to work hard & it's not going to be easy. Got to stick to the program. If your lost as to where to start- what exercises to do& you go to the gym and wander around the gym from machine to whatever- not really having a plan... this is the perfect start. I'm super happy. Its not going to turn you into a muscle head - just fit & toned- Very Satisfied with it & I'm only on week 2.. Lol👍

I have spent years at the gym with no real plan and no real results. Yes I'm fit and healthy, but haven't seen any real muscle growth. So I had a choice. Do I spend $60 an hour with a trainer? I did that once and got shown how to do a few different things. But no plan to follow. So I thought I'd watch a bunch of youtube videos. They helped. But no real plan to follow. I came across Jim's book on Amazon and bought it. It's a fairly quick read. What I love about it is it goes into the difference between compound and isolation exercises, and how to incorporate both into a program. When to do one, when to do the other. He lays out a 12 month program that lays a foundation of strength through compound exercises, then muscle growth through variations of isolation and compound exercises. There are no gimmicks here. No shortcuts. I didn't feel like I was being promised "30 days to a 6 pack". I started his program a week ago and already know I am going to see more results. I will be following his program for the next year and am excited. I feel like I have tracks to run on now. Also Jim invites you to reach out to him if you have any questions. I did have a question, so I emailed him. Within 48 hours I got a lengthy email back with answers to my questions. I like this guy. I highly recommend you get his book. Lastly if you spend 3 hours a week in the gym, that's 150 hours a year. If you value your time at a minimum $10/hr, that's $15,000 worth of time you'll spend this year. Times that by the next 5 years, that's $75,000. You get the point. It's worth spending $10-15 on a book that will help you be more effective with your time.

I've read a few of the books by James and as usual there is some great advice to be gleaned from this book, it's written in a very down to earth style which makes the read more easy and entertaining and James keeps it real by not trying to sell the reader any false claims. The theory behind each of the workout phases is also explained which helps guys like myself get a better grasp on the reasoning behind the training and on the subject of bodybuilding in general.On top of this, James (as usual) addresses the motivational aspect and planning for success right from your start date. There are some interesting training routines in here that are progressive and will see you through a full year of weight training/bodybuilding. For the price, that's a lot of value! This is actually a remake of his original book “Your year of Bodybuilding”. The book has had an “overhaul”. There are added planning charts that will help with “self-accountability” and also several new sections.

`Mental attitude, preparation and planning are as important in this game as any set or rep that you will do in the gym!' British author and health enthusiast James Atkinson is a highly regarded bodybuilder and trainer and author of fitness guides and this book is a revision of an earlier publication of his. Like all of his books, this new book underlines the serious approach this man takes toward helping help readers instead of building a pushy popularity contest. According to Jim, `It takes time, consistency, correct diet and training to achieve good results and sadly many people are sold on the idea that you can get a quick fix when it comes to building muscle...if you are looking to actually get some results and are willing to train hard and smart, this book is for you.' His goal for us: to build muscle and strength, burn fat and tune up with a full year of progressive weight training workouts. He is upfront in making us wary of the plethora of ballyhoo promises made in this now popular arena of creating books and supplements and diets and gyms - all promising instant results. He is a down to earth, honest man and his writing style and approach to body building proves that. Some of the areas of discussion he presents is this immensely readable book are the importance of initial health checks with your doctor to assure your body can manage the workout projected, and then proceeds to discuss cycling your workouts, finding your strengths and weaknesses, plan out your phases, how to lift with correct form, sorting out your diet (including a fine lesson on learning about BMI and how to calculate that and integrate the findings into your diet and exercise concept, the use of supplements - including creatine, and more. Jim then goes into detail about his concept of cycling your first year of bodybuilding: First12 weeks (strength training phase), Second 12 weeks, 2 day split (pre exhaust phase), Third 12 weeks, 2 day slit (compound before isolation phase), Fourth 12 week 3 day split - and it takes reading his book to fully understand these cycles. There are many pages of every exercise he discusses with excellent photographs of the various positions of each exercise - very easy to follow due to the photography of Mark Greenfield. And as on every page he encourages us to keep it simple and focus on basic resistance movements. No shallow or empty promises from Jim. Work with him and it will happen! After reading this book AND committing to it, you have a strong friend and training advisor in Jim. As with all of his books, this is solid information delivered in a no nonsense style.

Great book for someone that doesn’t like planning everything themselves. I was prior army and used to plan everything out but anymore I like the idea of following a plan premade for me. This just makes it easy and I’m in the second 12 weeks and seeing some good results.
