Book Reviews of Ironman's Ultimate Guide To Building Muscle Mass

Book Review: Not for the average person
Summary: 3 Stars

Briefly, this book is definitely a recap of what you see over a year of Iron Man magazines. But let's face it...has the bench press chnaged at all in 30 years? Info like this is repetitive because of that reason. This book does a great job of going over the same material everyone has.

Does this book offer anything that other advanced levels books have not? No.

My only warning is this - if you are not the truly serious, dyed in the wool, hardcore, highly motivated, ready to die before quitting type that wants to become a massive and true competition style bodybuilder...this book will not be for you.
