When I first bought this book, I thought it was just another hyped fitness book. I already had a bar, so I thought, what the heck. The price was also good. I just did the workout, and it is amazing. The thing about the bar being more balaced than free weights is true. I can do some things with the bar that I couldn't do with free weights, because it felt unbalanced. The "kayak" is an amazing workout. "Stirring the pot" is amazing. I was sweating hard, and I bike all the time. This is good stuff ! I really recommend it. There are MANY great exercises in the book, and the pictures and text are very good.
