Strength Training Anatomy February 15, 2008

Sometimes, I get frustrated when exercising. I know that a little strength training is supposed to be good for my bones while promoting weight loss. Unfortunately, I usually only have half a clue about what I'm doing. Thus, much of my workout is spent worrying whether I'm doing the movements correctly, hoping I don't hurt myself, and wishing I had a personal trainer to tell me what to do.
Strength Training Anatomy is definitely a better alternative. This book includes 15 different strength training exercises (free weights and resistance), focusing on the arms, shoulders, chest, back, legs, and buttocks. The proper range of motion is illustrated for each exercise (including variations) with the particular muscle groups highlighted in full colour. Both male and female body types are shown. The text also includes special features about common injuries: what causes these problems and how to avoid them.
Now, when working out, I am far more confident. I know which muscle groups are supposed to be in motion. I know how to avoid potential injury dangers. I even have an understanding of how to adapt these exercises to best suit my body form and abilities.

THIS BOOK IS GREAT FOR BEGINERS TO SERIOUS MEAT HEADS!!
VERY DETAILED DRAWINGS ( 400+ ) OF THE HUMAN BODY - SHOWS ALL THE MUSCLE GROUPS THAT ARE USED IN EACH EXERSISE.
DOES'NT HAVE ANY FOOD INFO OR TRAINING PROGRAMS.
YOU CAN USE THIS AS A BIBLE MAKING UP YOUR OWN TRAINING PROGRAMS FOR WHAT PARTS OF THE BODY YOU WANT TO DEVELOP.
VERY HARD TO BEAT!!!!

Brilliant book. Gives you the correct exercises to target specific muscles of the body. Outlines a range of exercises which produce maximum benefit. Incredibly well illustrated, you will find yourself coming back to it as a point of reference time and time again.

This is the best I've come across for gaining a clear understanding of what muscles you train when you do specific weight exercises. A great book for economic workout sessions and avoiding overtraining.
