Book Reviews of The New Rules of Lifting for Women: Lift Like a Man, Look Like a Goddess
Book Review: Loving the workouts
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is easy to read and is packed with information.
I am about 15 workouts into the program and am loving the challenge. I am defiantly stronger, and noticing good changes. There is a whole section devoted to nutrition which compliments the exercises.
For more fat loss/burn information also check out the New Rules of Lifting (it says its a man book, but neither books are really gender specific)
This book is a must for anyone looking to spice up their workout!
Book Review: Not for "girly" girls
Summary: 4 Stars
This book is great for those who really want to work hard and sculpt their body. It's great for beginners as well as those more advanced. His descriptions of the exercises are good, but it was lacking on the diet end of weight training. I would have liked to have seen more nutrition information.Book Review: Informative
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is awesome. Whole new perspective on weight training for women. You will not be bored with your work-outs any longer!Book Review: Step away from the pink dumbbells ...
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this book when it first came out after reading about it in my local fitness club magazine. I recently finished the entire program and really enjoyed it. There's nothing to fear lifting weights, and by doing real weightlifting with heavy loads you will build muscle. Of course it's important to remember that diet is key and that's one reason that this book exists. The exercise routines themselves aren't tailored to women, because they are normal free weight exercise that any man or woman can do. However, women have to learn to eat more. So a significant part of the book is devoted to debunking myths about diet and explaining why women need to lift weights. This isn't a fat loss program, so if you're looking to lose a lot of weight it might not be the place where you want to start for that. When I started the program I didn't need to lose weight, but was interested in building muscle and strength. The result - I have the same body fat as in college but weigh 10 pounds more. Book Review: Good book to add to your weight training library.
Summary: 4 Stars
Good book and workouts. My friends and workout partners like some of the workout ideas but we have had greater results (added firm muscles and lost weight)from the book: Weight Training Workouts and Diet Plan that Work by James Orvis
The workouts are quicker and planned out, you just follow them.
But would recommend New Rules for variety.
