Book Reviews of Arnold's Bodybuilding for Men

Book Review: Good, but his Encyclopedia is better
Summary: 5 Stars

The information in this book will get you into shape. The basics of exercise are what works and those basics are timeless.
This book provides the information in a concise and easy to understand manner.
However, if you already know that you will be sticking with the weight training and Arnold is your guru of choice, then I would just spring for "The New Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding" right off the bat.
It is way more thorough.
As for the dumb comments about Arnold's gains all coming from steroids...
Yes, we all know he took them, and no they are not the reason he was big.
Extremely hard work and persistance are the reasons he was big.
Anyone who thinks that steroids are all it takes has obviously never trained seriously. I know because I am the same size and a natural.
If you want to succeed at this then you have to train hard and smart, and you have to do that consistently for a long time.
That's probably where Arnold's best, he really inspires you to want to get your butt in the gym and move some weight.
