Summary: Bad Info!
Review: I am a fitness trainer and can't believe how seriously outdated the info is in this book. The authors perpetrate every bad fitness myth there is and the routines are destined to leave you overtrained. As others have pointed out, the book really doesn't address womens training issues (of which there are many) and the quality of the writing is terrible. Sadly, like so many current fitness trends, this book seems like a quick way to make a buck by those involved.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: The Body Sculpting Bible for Women
Review: First I must say thank you. I am a 32 year old women who just recently joined a gym. And unfortunaltly the gym only provided a trainer for two days. I have never worked out on machines before so I felt like a fish out of water. And the two days of help that I recieved didn't cover half of the things that I needed to know.

A friend had recommeded me to purchase " The Body Sculpting Bible for Women" and God did it help. I learned more from this book then a trainer could of tought me in four weeks. I now feel confident that I will be working out the correct way. I was very nervous at first that I was going to injure myself by using the equipment the incorrecct way. I now have the confidence that in the very near future I will be a healthy and fit young women.

I have recomended this book to my friend and my mother who also recently joined a gym and know that they will get as much out of this book that I did.

Again....Thank you!!!!

Summary: finally I feel good about myself
Review: Thank you so much for the great book. I started your routine about 5 weeks ago and wow! what a difference! Normally I get bored when I work out...so I stop working out, but with the "bible" I find myself looking forward to my work-outs. I finally feel good about myself. I have better stamina, more energy, and a body that I'm not ashamed of. Thank you again so much for helping me to see that working out and getting into shape doesn't have to be dull. Try the body scultpting bible...you'll love it. 5 stars!

Summary: This Is Hot Stuff!
Review: There are many books available on fitness, all claiming to provide the perfect plan for creating a great body. Unfortunately, most of the books I've read are basically refurbished material packaged nicely. This was my experience up until I purchased the body sculpting bible. The author has done an exceptional job of developing new and exciting material that works wonders! I've been training with weights for over 2 years now and consider myself very experienced when it comes to fitness. I must say that after reading the awesome information in this book, especially the incredibly detailed exercise descriptions and 14 day principles, I have become somewhat humbled in respect to the fact that I now recognize that I actually knew little about how to get the best results from my workouts.

This books has truly helped me to filter out the chaffe and demistify misconceptions that only held me back. I am proud to say that after only 4 weeks that I have lost over ten pounds and have undoubtedly noticed my arms and legs getting considerably toner. I still have a way to go, but I now have the tools to get there. In summary, this is a Great Book for any woman wanting to make life-long changes.

Summary: Best fitness book ever
Review: As a personal trainer I have read many fitness books. A friend of mine told me about the Body Sculpting Bible and told me I should check it out, so I did. I found it to be one of the most innovative, well informed and interesting books have seen yet. Not only does it help me with my clients, but with the information I have recieved from the book, I have changed some of my own work out habbits, and I'm seeing definite physical changes already. I really strongly recomend it!!!!

Summary: A Rip Off
Review: This book has nothing new in it. It rehashes what is found in other books. Worse, it really doesn't distinguish how training should be altered for women. It is basically a guy's bodybuilding routine packaged as a woman's fitness book. There are many other, better books on bodysculpting for women. This is a rip off.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best Book on Bodybuilding and Nutrition..
Review: After reading through many, many books on bodybuilding and nutrition, I have to say this is absolutely the best one I have found on both topics. First, about dieting, Hugo and James have devised an eating plan that not only makes good, sound and healthy nutritional sense, but it is so simple to follow that even a die-hard junk food freak like myself can follow it and still be happy (and lose weight!) Being a registered nurse, I know a little bit about nutrition and dieting, and believe me, these guys know their stuff, seriously. It really does work and it's easy to do.

It's also very inspiring to know that they are willing to share some of their own experiances, both good and bad, involving dieting and maintaining an image that one is comfortable with. I found it very inspiring and motivating to know that both of them have really "been there" and have made it their personal mission to find and share the best possible information regarding getting fit.

As for the exercize plan, it's terrific, very easy to follow, and after only two weeks I can honestly say I see some definite improvement and change. It works, and it works fast! There are actually three different plans, for beginners, advanced, and even a break-in plan for those who are new to working out. The photos and explanation pages for each individual exercize are terrific, they walk you through every single step including getting in proper position for lifting the weight and exactly how to lift it once you are ready. Maintaining good form is very easy to do with such thorough explanations and tips. Even those who have been working out for years can be sure to find some new idea that they will find very useful and informative. The authors also include some very good information on the mind/body connection in bodybuilding, and do so without getting too metaphysical or spacey about it.

Best of all, these guys really do what they claim to do, and that is answering your questions if you have any. I emailed them with a question about working out and sure enough, heard back within two days! I find that really impressive, they honestly do stand behind what they say, and obviously do care about the people they are trying to help. Buy this book, you won't need any others, you'll definitely be very happy with the results you will see.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Are you serious about physically being your best?
Review: These guys don't mess around with fluff. They know how to train you to look and feel your best, they tell you how to do it for yourself, then the book is over. It's up to you.
I have been weight lifting for two years now and almost ignored their pictures/explainations of the exercise. Once I started reading and DOING what they said, in detail, I could not finish the planned set! I have that wonderful 'worked hard sore' feeling right now.
Their plan is open enough that I will get to use all my favorite exercises and not get bored with the same reps over and over.
Now that I have studied the plan, I realize it is set up to be used over and over, improving yourself each time it is started over. No short plan and then you look for another plan somewhere else.
If you just like to read and not do, go to the library. If you are stuck not improving, having problems sticking with a routine, or just starting out, buy this book.

Summary: Very Impressed
Review: I received my copy not even a week ago..I was sooo impressed with this book that I read it from cover to cover in less than 3 days...It answered all of my questions and I found the information extremely helpful and very informative...I was kind of concerned about the instructions to workout with weights 5 to 6 days straight...I was always told that muscles need recovery time like a day or so, but I'm no expert...I work for a group of doctors and I'll run that past the Sport and Medicine doctor...Other than that, I was/I'm very very impressed....I've recommended this book to all of my friends interested in resculping there bodies...If there was a scale to 10, I'd definitely give this book a 10....The book is greattttt!!!!!
