The World's Most AUTHORITATIVE Guide to Building Your Body
You probably know a lot about building muscle. You know which curl is the best for your biceps, you do every possible exercise for your abdominals, and your 20-set bench-press routine is the envy of everyone in the gym. So why haven't you gotten the results you want?
This book has the answer. In fact, it probably answers every question you've ever asked about how your muscles work: What makes them grow? What makes them show? Why didn't that champion bodybuilder's routine work for you?
But The Book of Muscle does more than just explain how your muscles work. It also gives you comprehensive muscle-building programs from a world-class trainer.
Ian King has spent 2 decades as strength coach to world-champion and Olympic athletes. He is in wide demand as a lecturer on athletic preparation and physique development, and he is a popular contributor to Men's Health magazine and T-mag.com, the most popular bodybuilding Web site on the planet. Now, for the first time, he brings his extraordinary knowledge and unique muscle-building systems to a book meant for regular guys who like to work out and want to see better results than they've gotten from conventional programs.
Here's what you get from The Book of Muscle that you can't get from any other book:
Three complete 6-month, progressive workout programs created by Ian King to optimize muscle growth by juxtaposing opposing muscle actions
Ian King's revolutionary training-age system to help you determine which program is right for you
Complete abdominal training that ensures you'll not only get that coveted six-pack but also develop the muscles that prevent injuries and produce better performance on the field--any field
Vital advice on warming up, stretching, and recovering between workouts
The latest and best information on how you need to eat to make your muscles grow s20 If you've never before bought a workout book, this should be your first. And if you've tried all the others, this is the one that finally delivers everything you have ever wanted to know but couldn't find in one place.

Customer Rating:      Summary: Great stuff i bet you didnt know Comment: This book is great for beginners mainly but is directed to everyone, is very scientific but on the same way shows lots of good exercises and variations that one can perform. I think is a great source of knowledge but that the workouts are a little hard to follow so I'd say get info from here and integrate it to your routine.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Transformational Comment: Following the workouts and nutrition advice in this book have been the only way I have ever gained weight in an exercise program. The focus on building the connective tissues, tendons and joints while not overtraining is emphasized in this book with tremendous results. My old weightlifting injuries have been rehabilitated through these programs, and the results are noticeable from one week to the next, especially when the programs shift gears. Even better, my progress does not atrophy if I take a week or two break since Ian King's programs build a solid foundation that literally builds onto your body. This is my second time through the program (after taking a break with no access to a gym) and I have already gained 6 lbs of muscle in my first 6 weeks. I have never been so humbled by a workout program! If you follow the program to the letter, expect a deep burn in your muscles and you will be so sore the next day you will feel as though you worked out twice.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good book Comment: My very first book on lifting weights I ever bought. This book helped me a lot and I learnt a great deal from this book. This book is a great book for anyone looking for a great read and new ideas in the weight room.
Customer Rating:      Summary: NOT for the beginner Comment: I'm an avid reader of Men's Health but this book is by no means for the "average guy." This book is filled with lots of great tips for those who want to be professional weight lifters but I would never recommend this to a beginner. A workout book should inspire you...this book was so complicated and intimidating I was discouraged before even hitting the gym.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good Book Comment: Great book, got this for a friend for his BDay. Once I got it I kept it for my self and got him some drinks at the bar.
