If you are someone without experience in nutrition and exercises, and you want to enter in a new lifestyle, this is very good book,5* . He is giving some explanation in every chapter so it is not difficult to understand "why" to do like that and he is trying to teach you all you need to start.And you also have complete workout programs, so you get all you need.
Is he right or not in his statements,(or is the workout program best or not) I think for beginner is not so important, this is not writen to be a "bible of exercise physiology". Everybody with several years experience can find here something what is not 100% correct, but once more, this is a book for beginners who want to enter in a world of exercising and fit life and they get a complete solution in one book. Very easy and simple to read, high print and photo quality.
If you are experienced trainee and interesting for new methods to be stronger and build bigger mass, this is not for you, nothing new here, for you this is not a knockout program, for you this book is ony 2*

I must admit, i was excited to learn about this book at first. Why you ask? I did the LL cool J workout twice and got amazing results. However, it was time for a change. I got this book the other day and was very disappointed.
Before I picked up the LL Cool J workout book, i was already fully aware of how to workout, how to eat.. yada yada yada. I have been working out for years prior to buying the book. But i was bored with what i have been doing. The book gave me something to follow, a streamlined plan of what to do, why to do it. It started off a little easy in the beginning, then got challenging, then very challenging.. just what i needed to vamp up my workout. after 20 hard weeks, i was able to pick a pair of weeks here and there from the workout until deciding to just do it all over again.. it much harder the second time around :)
so, enough of the LL cool J workout. The AC slater workout just seems too simple. it is possibly good for beginners, however, i think after a beginner becomes advanced, the book will not be benefical anymore. the workouts are too sport specific, and after 6 weeks i don't see where you can improve.
i gave the book two stars because of the good meal plans and the pictures of Katrina :)
in short
-the LL cool J book is great for beginners and will make someone who has never picked up a weight learn the moves correctly and soar from week to week..
-the AC slater book is great for beginners, but is impractical for overall muscular development because it is just too sport specific
in any case.. remember working out is only 30% of the road to a great body, you gotta eat right to look tight!
A Must Have! July 21, 2008
