The Men’s Health Guide To Peak Conditioning

This has helped me reach my “PEAK” in my favorite sports! It is, in my eyes, an ultimate resource book for all weight trainers(Young/Old, Begining/Advanced).

I’m one of those guys that does a lot of researching before I begin any major endeavor. I also read a lot on a lot of different subjects. Take my word for it, if you are about to commit yourself to a major fitness regimen and have never done so before, this book will be invaluable to you. It seems as if the authors have literally sifted through all of the other books and magazines (and as you know there’s a lot of junk out there), picked out the important stuff and then run it buy the experts before it made it into this book. The book is also a great motivator, always reminding you to set reasonable goals and then giving you advice on how to stay focused on them. You get a lot for your money and this book is worth every penny.

P.S. As a gay guy, there were occasional references that made me feel a bit excluded. It would be nice if the “men” in Men’s Health was truly inclusive. I wish I could expect equity but on balance I’m still very satisfied. There are also some very friendly books out there like “Basic Training” by Jon Giswold and any of the books from the brothers Brungardt.

This was probably a waste of my money. If you’ve been weight training for any length of time the material in this book will not be of any great value. If you are new to the iron game, then the routines presented in this book are sound enough to get you started on the right track. The best chapter I found in the book was the one on how to lace up your sneakers for different sporting events!

Very well done book. Contains many exercises for head to toe…literally cause there really is exercises for the head all the way to feet lol. I recommend this book if you’re looking for some different workouts. Also has bonuses like working out at the office or hints on how to last longer in bed for men.

I’m a novice when it comes to lifting weights, but this book answered almost every question I’ve ever had about weight lifting. Obviously, don’t rely on this book alone, but it is an excellent start!
