  • Great mix of anatomy and exercise reccomendations
This is a great book for people interested in fitness or physical therapy who do not know a lot about muscle anatomy beyond the basics. The book is mostly focused on the anatomy, but also gives many exercises to do and shows how each exercise works a variety of specific muscles. The diagrams and descriptions are very well made and thorough. Even for more advanced experts, I could see this book being a great reference to go back to. The only negative thing I would say is that some of the descriptions of how to perform the exercises could be a little more thorough. Otherwise, great book! ... show more

  • A helpful book to anyone wanting to get serious about fitness
I ordered the book based on a friend's advice about strength training when I began hitting plateaus. I was skeptical, but once reading the book, I quickly realized where my workouts were coming up short, and why I was hitting plateaus. If used properly, it is a powerful addition to anyone's collection to build proper workouts, understanding how and which muscles are being worked while doing specific exercises. Using the book and studying my workout, I was able to change my workout, and make it much better by exchanging exercises, and avoid over working some groups, while neglecting others. ... show more

  • Excellent resource
I enjoy working out but I am essentially self taught regarding proper lifts and form and things like that. After getting more serious the last couple years I noticed I would have random aches that would put me out of the gym for awhile so I decided to get this book (along with a few others) as a way to visualize what was happening to my body as I was doing various exercises. This book is excellent for that. The pictures are highly detailed and the information is very thorough. There are several different categories and there is even a rating system for different exercises that could give newcomers an idea about how advanced a particular exercise is before trying it. And then it’s great because if something is advanced you can look at the muscles needed for that lift and then look for a more intermediate exercise to get those muscles up to par. Seriously a great resource, highly recommend. ... show more
