Summary: Nothing for Naturals
Comment: Most of the discussion in this book will prove completely useless and almost discouraging to virtually all natural lifters. Starting with 20+ sets per muscle group recommended to build a serious physique and moving on to 10-set supersets of leg extensions and leg curls with fifteen seconds' pause, this book contains many ways to completely overload any natural trainer's body.
Cluttered with photos of top bodybuilders through the years, some of which have tragically passed away from drug abuse, there is little specific advice: the book reads like a full-length bodybuilding mag. Lots of information is presented about general training concepts and techniques, but I found nothing I could incorporate into my routines with any kind of results. There is little discussion of specific exercises and their form, with no illustration of the ones that are mentioned.
While some people may find new and interesting ways to shake up their rituals at the gym, I've gotten excellent results naturally with an extremely basic, old-school program. I'd suggest a comprehensive book on lifts by emphasis and muscle group over this for anyone clean.

Summary: For advanced lifters
Comment: This book is clearly aimed at the intermediate or advanced bodybuilder who is looking for more variety. Unfortunately, the book is padded with way too many pictures of genetically gifted and chemically enhanced muscleheads.
Not a bad book, overall. In fact, I've incorporated a few of the exercises into my own program.

Summary: don't waste your money
Comment: I bought this book hoping to get some new information on how to be a non-steroid taking natural body-builder, yet the photos of everyone in the book are all of steroid monsters, and the routines propounded in the book are all the same old stupid techniques of high reps and multiple sets with super heavy weights to develop the ultimate muscle mass, without any concern for what these techniques do in the long run in terms of trashing all of your joints, or even that these are not the most effective techniques of weight training for symmetrical muscular development.
