Review by Publisher's Weekly Review
No stranger to the Men's Health fitness books, Schuler, writing with King, designs a thorough workout plan for each part of the body. The authors begin by explaining the physiology of muscles-how they grow and deteriorate, what nutrition they need to build up. Exercises are then organized by body sections, with such chapter headings as "Muscles that Act on the Shoulder Joints and Scapulae" and "Muscles that Act on the Hips." With full-color photos and step-by-step instructions, each entry explains the set up, execution and variations of every exercise. The third section of the book explains how to devise a workout plan, while that fourth section lists 6-month workout schedules for beginning, intermediate, and advanced body sculptors. The authors break each program into stages and offer charts listing number of sets, number of reps, and how much time to rest in between. Whether one wants to build muscles or simply tone them, this book is the perfect introduction to body shaping for men. (Oct.) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved
