I have been certified as a personal trainer since 1990, my first year of college. Since then, I have read about, reviewed, studied and tried almost every technique out there. I could probably be given an honory degree in Sports Medicine with the knowledge I have accumulated.
This book is all hype! It is just making a buck with the Ronnie Coleman brand name. Almost no substance was put into this book. Pathetic!
The information and most of the details about exercises, form and technique are accurate and/or useful -
BUT
This book is soooooooooooooo 1st grader basic, you could easily get hurt in the gym, get lost or confused and not make progress, etc.
There is just not enough information in this book to make it a smart purchase. It is really just good to look at since 99% of the book are great pictures of Ronnie. If you are looking to learn about bodybuilding, weight training, etc. you will really need other, better, more fully detailed books.
Please understand, you can easily go into the gym, make one wrong move that can cause you permament injury for the rest of your life. Imagine being 20 years old and ruining your rotator cuff or hip joint and spending the next 50 years with limited ability....unable to do some of the best exercises in the gym!!!!
This book is a fun, get you motivated by looking at all the pretty pictures type of product. It lacks thoroughly in meaty details. Enjoy it for what it is. Do not expect to grow large and wide though. It is just not as easy as this book makes it seem.
Don't do it. You need to educate yourself and learn, learn, learn!!!!!!!

I expected much more of an insight to his training programs. I found his website to be much more informative. The title of this book should have something in the title "Beginner Edition".

This book is alright. I was a little disappointed in how he dealt with, or rather did not deal with his use of steroids to achieve his physique. It's good for someone looking for ideas on how to start training or for the pictures of a huge man. However, it is not a book for detail or much information.
