Fantastic book for strength training anatomy.
Each movement is perfectly adapted for women.
Not only the drawings are anatomicaly exact but the author is also an artist.

I love this book, but, it is missing the arms (biceps, triceps, and shoulders) and chest! So, therefore, I give it only 4 stars for that reason…otherwise, excellent reference book.

Well I really would like to review this book, it seemed excellent and I had heard really great things about it – even from my gym instructors.
However after over a month I still havent received and now I have to haggle with Amazon about it. Boo !

Although this is an informative book, I was a little disappointed that 99.99% of the exercises referred to here were the female upper body only.
The reason that I purchase the book was because I had seen the mens version, but when I was got to the check out screen, Amazon offered me the female version of the same book. So, understandably since i’m a female, I ordered that one instead.
Sad but true, the mens version shows exercises literally from head to toe as where this (female version) book only shows/discusses from the waist up. I’m guessing that’s where most men (author included) concentrate on on the female anatomy…:-(

This book is absolutely one of the best I have ever seen in helping you understand how each exercise affects each muscle group. Very dramatic in detail! Only disappointment is that is applies only to lower body and abs..Would love to have had upper body too. Well worth the purchase.
