Incredibly Helpful

This little old book, published over 25 years ago, is still one of the best books out there for getting into bodybuilding. What it lacks in specifics for nutrition can be made up elsewhere, but what it contains for no-nonsense lifting advice is stellar. Anyone who wants excellent information related to lifting, without a huge and expensive tome to tote around should buy this old standard.

A Complete Guide to Bodybuilding

This book was my first introduction to Bodybuilding. Franco explains everything in this book from body types to diet and training routines. A helpful book for anyone just starting out or for the advancedlifters out there.

Winning Bodybuilding
