Not on par with Arnold's Encyclopedia of BB this is better :DOctober 28, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Musclemag is my favourite BB Mag, and Bob Kennedy has written many great books, so I had very high expectations from this book. Let me tell you that, while it doesn't exceed my expectations it very well satisfy them. It covers many grounds that Arnold's or Bill Pearl's Encyclopedia's didn't cover, Bob Kennedy is a great writer and publisher, this book is another testimonial for that fact.
Let me Share its Chapters: 1.Laying the Groundwork 2.The Body You're Building 3.Ready,Set,Go! 4.Principles of Nutrition 5.Intermediate Level Concerns 6.Advenced Level Training 7.BB the Greatest of Sports 8.Earning Living through BB 9.The Big Seven Exersizes 10.The M.A.S.S System Training 11.Training with the Superstars 12.The Complete BBer 13.BB Sociology 14.Hardcore Growth
A Great Bodybuilding BookOctober 19, 2008 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Having seen every issue of Musclemag International since issue #1, I didn't expect to see anything new with the Encyclopedia of Bodybuilding. I am happily surprised with the great content of this book. It really is an encyclopedia. With chapter titles like The Key to Anabolic Growth, Synthol and Bodybuilding in the Golden Years this is a great book for beginners and veterans alike. Intense routines and a walk down the memory lane of bodybuilding make this one of the best bodybuilding books ever.
