Summary: Not for the average person
Comment: Briefly, this book is definitely a recap of what you see over a year of Iron Man magazines. But let's face it...has the bench press chnaged at all in 30 years? Info like this is repetitive because of that reason. This book does a great job of going over the same material everyone has.

Does this book offer anything that other advanced levels books have not? No.

My only warning is this - if you are not the truly serious, dyed in the wool, hardcore, highly motivated, ready to die before quitting type that wants to become a massive and true competition style bodybuilder...this book will not be for you.

Summary: A good book
Comment: Basically, the book seems to be a culmination of different issues of IronMan magazine. This book gives some pretty good tip's and a bunch of workout routines (Although some are a bit advanced). If you've been collecting IM mags for a long time you'll be familiar with some of the info that is in this book.
