Great book
It’s a textbook of anything you need to know exercise. How to do the exercises and what muscles you are targeting when you are doing it. It has pictures which are very helpful. And of course you can always look something up on YouTube also. I’d definitely say buy it. It’s a very affordable price and it helps.

OMG, amazing book at an amazing price!
A simple book on how to get fit. Well written and Amazingly illustrated. It not only shows a range of exercises, but also include exercises specifically for the sport you're into. I play tennis and it has a specific workout regiment just for that. Really a great book and can't beat the price. Should have bought this long ago, now I understand how to properly use the equipment and have good form. Can't say enough good things about this book.

Worth it
Great book in helping you understand the muscle groups being worked during an exercise & how to keep good form. Pages show men & women. Shows how to modify most exercises for beginners & intermediate. Also states when an exercise is not advisable.

Maltratado, pero vale la pena.
El libro me llegó un poco maltratado. Con un aspecto de uso. Pero la verdad no se consigue en ninguna parte más que aquí. Si ya tienes experiencia desarrollando programas deportivos este libro es ideal para ti.
