"Good overview on weight training. It has enough information to start your own home workout (both for planning and implementation). Additionally, it touches topics like nutrition and yoga in relation to weight training very lightly."
"I guess I confused "for Dummies" with "for skinnies" and thought I'd need this. It was helpful to learn that my grading system for myself can have a sliding scale of what exactly "fitness" means."
"If you are just getting started (and I *really* mean "just") you will find this book helpful - it saves you the effort of reading from the monitor. The same basic rules you will find in every training or bodybuilding site, with the same basic exercises ... If you are fan of bodybuilding books (like I am), buy it just in case - otherwise it's a waste of money."
