Book Reviews of The Men's Health Guide To Peak Conditioning

Book Review: Very informative and comprehensive
Summary: 4 Stars

Wow, this book has a LOT of information. Almost too much, actually. Inevitably, a book covering such a wide range topics, goals and lifestyles is bound to gloss over a bit here and there, which this book does occasionally. That would be the reason for loss of the fifth star.

But if you're looking for very informative book that will guide you to becoming very healthy, fit and strong (but not necessarily Men's Health model "cut") then this is the book for you.

It was first published about 10 years ago, so it's not ultra modern, but I don't think that really a drawback. The information is pretty timeless. Eat right and exercise. And this book will show you how.
