“This book is a great companion to anyone looking to do strength training. While it is outdated in many respects, it is still an incredible resource (for the 5$ I paid for it). The bulk of the book's 700+ pages consists of detailed guides to specific exercises. This info can be found on the web at sites like http://www.exrx.net/ . Of course, there is nothing like having a book to turn to for proper form, and then on the next page seeing an old black and white photo of Arnold benching over 400lbs!
Newer versions of the book probably contain better training advice, but I haven't seen them.”
