Introduction
ank you for buying  . is book was written with one
objective in mind—to teach you how to build a superbly muscled, strong,
lean and healthy physique.   can change your life!

If you are a genetically typical bodybuilder or strength trainee you will have
gotten little or no satisfaction from your training. Despite having faithfully
followed conventional training instruction you will have become frustrated
and disillusioned. Conventional training methods—those which are vigor-
ously promoted in almost all gyms today—only work very well if you are one
of the very few who are naturally highly gifted for muscle building, or if you
are propped up with dangerous bodybuilding drugs. But if you train as this
book advocates, you can make drug-free gains that may astound you, regard-
less of how average or otherwise your genetic inheritance is.

is is a very serious book dedicated to people who are impassioned with
their training. In the best interests of your education this book presents
information in a very detailed and direct manner, and it confronts many
traditional opinions.

e education needed to write this book came from many sources. My own
training experiences and a life that has been consumed by weight training
make up only part of the education. As an obsessed youngster I digested
much of the nonsense and confusion that abounds in the bodybuilding
world. But because I did not have an excellent genetic inheritance, and
would not use drugs, this led to years of unrelenting frustration. Finally
I came across training methods that do work for most people. is book
details those methods.

e publishing of  since its inception in  has given me
a unique insight into training for genetically typical people. e education
was bolstered by a great deal of writing for newsstand bodybuilding maga-
zines, and extensive research. With practical training for drug-free people
being my full-time employment, it has focused my mind on bodybuilding
and strength training like nothing else ever could. Much of the acquired
knowledge has been distilled for inclusion in this book. In it you are getting
a wealth of information you can really use.

is book builds on the foundation constructed by . e latter
focused on appropriate role models, the inadequacies of conventional train-
