#Hardcore bodybuilding books to read how to
Each exercise has pictures and instructions on how to do them. This exercise guide is pretty in-depth and gave me a lot of ideas. Arnold goes through each body part, giving ways to stretch the muscle and train weak points.
Next Arnold goes through a basic training routine and some intensity boosting techniques like super-setting, forced reps, and slow negatives.Īrnold then devotes over 300 pages to an exercise guide. For example, a person who has a thick endomorphic body type should not strive to look like Frank Zane. Then you learn about different body types people have.Ī point I picked up from this section is: When picking someone's physique that you want to work toward achieving, you should pick someone who has a body type like yours. Next Arnold goes into basic training principles, like what is a rep, a set, and what various equipment is used for.
You get to see pictures of past and present bodybuilders. The first 90 pages give you a look into the history of bodybuilding. This book is divided into five books each with chapters. At first, this book was a little intimidating because it is 800 pages long, but I finished it in one week. The book is around 800 pages long and filled with great pictures of bodybuilders. I, being a big fan ofĪrnold, decided to get this book. I pulled it from the shelves and saw the pic of Arnold flexing his bicep on the cover. I was at my local library looking through the shelves, when I saw this thick book just calling my name. The New Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding
