Book Reviews of New Rules of Lifting: Six Basic Moves for Maximum Muscle

Book Review: Getting Back to Basics
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a great primer in getting back to basics when it comes to lifting. Like most recreational lifters I was educated by Arnold and his Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding. The fact is most people don't need to train at that level. You don't need to evaluate your physique and hit the lower, outer quadrant of your bicep. You probably just want to pack on some lean muscle, this book helps you get there.

Summary of New Rules of Lifting: Six Basic Moves for Maximum Muscle

A revolutionary method of weight lifting using today's science for maximum results.

In The New Rules of Lifting, fitness guru Lou Schuler and strength-training expert Alwyn Cosgrove boil down the most recent findings on weight lifting and fitness to create a program of workouts that focuses on the movements at which the body naturally excels. These six "real-life" movements-squat, bend, lunge, push, pull, and twist-compose three complete programs for three distinct goals: fat loss, muscle gain, and strength improvement.

At home or at the gym, these routines can be mixed and matched for a year's worth of workouts that will keep boredom at bay and lifters challenged long after most plans have called it quits. And while coordinated, useful muscles will always turn heads at the beach, they'll also help you live better and longer. Besides providing comprehensive workout programs, The New Rules of Lifting covers much-needed background on aspects of lifting that are often overlooked, like warming up, nutrition, and meal planning. Throughout, Schuler and Cosgrove debunk strength-training myths, troubleshoot dangerous pitfalls, and clearly illustrate moves with black-and-white photographs.
