101 Workouts for Women by Muscle and Fitness

I bought this book because I'm an intermediate weight trainer looking for some fresh ideas for my workout. The book shows you the basics, but also gives you advanced moves with a ton of variations; exercises with every type of equipment (machines at the gym, medicine ball, inflatable ball, bands, hand weights, etc.) Every page is in color, and it divides the book by sections: abs, legs, chest, shoulders, etc. It's great for beginner and intermediate/advanced trainers because it shows options for if you work out in your living room or more advanced ideas at the gym (such as front squats with the Smith machine or a pike pushup). The book also gives you ideas for putting your workout into action; which exercise to combine and creating a weekly workout. I also like that the 'models' in this book look like 'real' athletes and not stick-thin women who look like they survive on carrots and 2 hours of cardio a day.

I am very happy with this purchase. The only thing I wish the book had was a more detailed explanation of the specific muscle being worked in each exercise (i.e, I know I'm working the shoulder, but which part of the shoulder). Other than that, this is a great book! I highly recommend it!Read full review...

101 Workouts for Women by Muscle and Fitness Hers Mag.

Great Book. Full of new ideas for the same old exercises. As good as having a personal trainer if you take the time to go through the book before your workout and jot down notes on the specific body part you want to work out. I have been working out for years and found this book helpful for adding "spice" to the same old routine. LeighRead full review...

I have many young female athletes who come to me for training to get to the next level, and several middle-aged women wanting to get into better shape and lose weight. This book supplements by existing collection and gives me the additional exercises and programs to help all my athletes. Great buy.Read full review...

Great reference

This is not really for beginners, but if you have any kind of experience in the gym, this is a great reference tool. I keep it on my coffee table and refer to it several times a week. If I could only have one book on working out, this would be the one.Read full review...
