Encyclopedia of Muscle & Strength

ebook

More than 80 million people exercised using free weights and weight machines last year in the United States alone. That high level of interest and the complexity in developing all or some of the 640 muscles in the human body strongly suggest the need for a research-based, all-encompassing guide to strength training.

Encyclopedia of Muscle & Strength is just such a resource. Author Jim Stoppani, science editor for Muscle & Fitness and Flex magazines, assembles and distills a wealth of information in the same clear, comprehensible style that is appreciated by millions of his readers each month.

Both a reference and a training guide, Encyclopedia of Muscle & Strength begins with an informative presentation of the key terminology, equipment, concepts, and innovations that make up strength training. The chapters that follow feature 255 exercises for 11 major muscle groups, along with sample training programs for maximizing strength or building muscle mass.
