Book Description

November 14, 2008
Design bodybuilding programs to maximize your muscle growth. This book not only provides you with an effective bodybuilding program, but it teaches you how to train for size, symmetry and strength so that you can create your own bodybuilding programs. You will learn techniques to maximize your body's natural anabolic hormones: growth hormone, insulin and, of course, testosterone. You will also understand each muscle group's "personality" and how to tailor your training to develop any lagging muscle group. This book is packed with specialization routines for the chest, back, deltoids, arms, quads, hamstrings and calves. SPV2 is a very dense read, and you will shortcut your learning curve by light years in the gym. Make no mistake. This program is tough physically and mentally and is meant solely for the intermediate to advanced bodybuilder looking to build a lot of muscle in all the right places.

5.0 out of 5 stars one of the best, August 27, 2009
This review is from: Strength And Physique: Neo-Classical Bodybuilding (Volume 2) (Paperback)
a great overall bodybuilding/strength/power/fitness book. author has taken training protocols from the most proven and respected trainers/authors/research and compiled into a single intelligent, realistic and effective program.

not pure bodybuilding (see charles poliquin, HST), not pure strength (see HIT), not pure power (see robert dos remedios) but a mix of the three, which is best for overall improvement... assuming you don't have the more specific goals of a competitive bodybuilder, strength lifter, or college/pro athlete.

5.0 out of 5 stars another solid program, August 23, 2009
By 
This review is from: Strength And Physique: Neo-Classical Bodybuilding (Volume 2) (Paperback)
Another solid, no nonsense, to the point workout/sculpting/muscle building guide by James Chan. I bought some of his other strength and physique series and they were really compact and useful in the gym. James breaks down his earlier works with body building vs the new modern lean look that a lot of people seem to be going for. Whatever your objectives are, whether it is to body build and become Arnold Schwartzenegger (pre Governor days) or Brad Pitt in Fight Club, check out James's work and get cut real fast.. .Anyways, James has youtube videos too at [...]. Check out his kettlebell vids...

5.0 out of 5 stars Good investment, but very advanced., November 22, 2008
This review is from: Strength And Physique: Neo-Classical Bodybuilding (Volume 2) (Paperback)
Another great book by this guy! Whereas his first book is a compilation of his magazine articles and training techniques, this second book presents more of a coherent and complete training system. The book tells you how different ways of training actually produce different hormonal responses. So the training program outlined in this book cycles through these different workouts to give you as much muscle growth as possible.

Plus the author gives you some specialization routines for each muscle group, as well as extra training articles, some of which I've never read before.

great book for a bodybuilder who knows his stuff, but this book would be a hard read for the beginning bodybuilder.
