Summary: The most comprehensive book written on bodybuilding.
Review: Without a doubt the most compreshensive book ever written on bodybuilding! Truly a delight to read. After reading the book from cover to cover, I revamped my workout and actually saw major results within a couple of months whereas I havn't seen in about a year. This book is truly a must for anyone who wants to shape up or enter the field of bodybuilding. I strongly recommend it!!!!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Arnold could have done better
Review: Contrary to the other reviews I have read, you don't have to be doping yourself to use the information in this book. However you must insure that your training nutrition is flawless. It's a shame that the book doesn't go deeply into the idea of using legal supplements to help the bodybuilder be successfull. I think you have to start by reading a beginners guide to bodybuilding before jumping on this book. Without the proper foundations, most readers will see the exercises as impossible and therefore come to the conclusion that they need to use steroids to succeed. Overall a good book though, but not for beginners.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THIS BOOK JUST LIKE THE ORIGINAL IS AWESOME

EVERYONES DIFFRENT WHAT WORKS FOR ME WONT WORK FOR EVERYONE. BUT THE EXERCISES AND CORE GROUP OF TRAINING PRINCIPLES SET FORTH BY ARNOLD WILL INSURE YOUR SUCCESS IF YOU WANT IT.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: This book is an invaluable tool for aspiring bodybuilders
Review: Arnold has done it again; from Mr. Universe to film icon and inspiration to millions, now an updated version of his previous "Encyclopedia" has outdone the first, a task that I personally didn't think could be done. Anyone, from newcomers to the sport of bodybuilding, to long-time veterans of the gym can benefit from reading this tome-there's so much information packed inside that you'll get bulging biceps just picking the thing up! From the history of the sport, to training routines and even nutrition and posing, this book is an excellent buy for an all-around summation of the art of bodybuilding.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Cartoon guide to bodybuilding
Review: A book packed with routines that would stun a bull gorilla. No-one who is not taking phenomenal amounts of anabolic drugs will gain a scrap of muscle from the training advice presented here. Read anything by Stuart Macrobert if you want sensible training advice. IF you just want to drool over lots of pictures of Arnold - get this book.
