5.0 out of 5 stars Explosive, natural gains, May 5, 2000

This review is from: Building the Classic Physique: The Natural Way (Paperback)

I believe that this is the best book for bringing out your potential.It is intense--you work out hard three days a week and then rest four. This is the way the natural guys, Reeves, Ross, Park, Delinger, Grimek, Stephans, Eiferman, Tanny etc did it back in those days and they got some incredible results--drug free.The other thing I like about this training program is that it gives you the time to have a life outside the gym.I just heard of Steve Reeves passing. How unfortunate. HE was indeed one of the real legends of bodybuilding and will be sorely missed.Buy the book and use it. It's the best.

This review is from: Building the Classic Physique: The Natural Way (Paperback)

Interested in knowing a lot about the living legend SteveReeves? Please enter. If you're into bodybuilding, all the rightstuff for building a classic physique is here; how and when to work out, what to eat, what not to eat, when to rest, etc.; every ingredient for achieving a great build naturally. In addition to bodybuilding, Steve also unveils his everyday recipe for staying physically fit for life. Some of the topics include the power of walking, the importance of water, getting smart about nutrition, etc. With 175 rare pictures of Reeves, the book also delivers on biographical data: from childhood, to bodybuilding fame, to worldwide movie star, to Reeves' current activity. It's all documented, it's all interesting and it's all the write stuff.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is a bible for true bodybuilders, October 8, 1999

This review is from: Building the Classic Physique: The Natural Way (Paperback)

I read the book from cover to cover the minute I got it. If you a natural bodybuilder or you're looking to get into weight training, this is the way to go. I love how he cuts on people who have to use steroids to get huge. The goal of bodybuilding, and any man or woman for that matter, is to have great proportions. Steve's all-natural way is absolutely the best!
