[book] Body By Science, Doug Mcguff (8/10)

[Julian]

I bought this book because it's subtitle looked very promising: A research-based programs for strength training, body building, and complete fitness in 12 minutes a week.

In this book he throws around quite a lot of technical terms, which can be intimidating at first. The author is a medical doctor by the way. But the research that he shows is interesting and he convinces you not only that cardio is bad but also that you don't need to spend a lot of time for good muscle growth. Oh boy, what he saves in time he makes up in intensity. He shows you an exercise plan to do. When I go to the gym to do it I leave physically exhausted. The thing is, it works.

I'd recommend this book for people who are comfortable with technical jargon and who want an efficient exercise routine with little time invested.

@varkolaka122 This book gives you a rough exercise plan. You can do these exercises either with machines or with a barbell, some weights, and a training bench.
