It's all about The Game,
By MartialWay (Sherman Oaks, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Triple H Making the Game: Triple H's Approach to a Better Body (Wwe) (Hardcover)
I'd be giving this three and a half stars, but Amazon doesn't do the half-star thing. So I rounded up to express my admiration for this superstar. He pretty much makes RAW what it is these days--- At least to me. Where HHH is concerned I am the furthest thing from a "hater" as a person can get. This is my absolute favorite pro wrestler, so imagine how excited I was to learn he put out, not only an autobiography, but a fitness manual as well. Wow! I've been going to the gym, trying my best to emulate the Game and his large, athletic physique. Getting advice from the man himself, to me, was a great gift. Imagine my disappointment after reading how little this man has to say about himself and fitness.
You can tell that The Game sat in a room with a writer holding a tape recorder, and did not bother to take the time to go into any great detail about the business he works in. This is a combined autobiography AND training "manual" that is 196 pages, large text and double spaced, plus about 30 extra pages that explain some of the exercises he mentions. Don't expect to hear any anecdotes about his childhood, his family life or backstage antics in the wrestling world. While he has a chapter devoted to his relationship with Stephanie McMahon, again expect little personal detail. He's telling us what he'd tell any reporter with a mic in his face. This is not a book; it is an essay in book's clothing. But it has its merits. You will get to know the man a littler better and it does show you a side of Triple H (Paul Levesque) you haven't seen, which is really my way of saying he's not a complete jerk. He seems like a down to earth, somewhat shy and rather nice guy in his own way. I don't think you can win the hand of Vinnie Mac's little girl by being an A-Hole. His chapter about his horrible Quadricep injury that took him away from us, and had me crying for a whole year was interesting. He discusses his rehab, and how he is the first person to come back from an injury of that caliber. His body building advice is very informal, but informative. It's designed for a man who punishes his body constantly, so there are hard days and light days. He discusses how he is able to maintain good nutrition while spending the bulk of his life on the road. Again, don't expect great details. I think this book was put out with people who already work out in mind, so he'll tell you what to do, but not how. That's not his job. The message of the Game's book is that Bodybuilding taught him to set goals and work slowly but surely to attain them, as we should. If you're looking for an informal training manual, a small glimpse into this guy's life, and an even smaller glimpse into the world of pro-wrestling then buy the book. If you're expecting anything anywhere near Mick Foley's "Have a Nice Day!: A Tale of Blood and Sweatsocks" save your money. Foley has a lot more to say about the pro wrestling business and himself than the Game. Still, a pretty good read. You can finish the autobiography in about 4 hours--- the training manual is meant to last longer, as body-building is a process that *should* take you the rest of your life, and I think his advise is sound. Look at him--- how can it not be?

What Is The Big Gripe Here!!!!!!!!!!!!!,
By BiggJD "JD" (North Carolina) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Triple H Making the Game: Triple H's Approach to a Better Body (Wwe) (Hardcover)
I am really shocked at some of the reviews of this book. I mean people are trashing Paul Levesque's book because they feel that he cannot speak about fitness because he may or may not use steroids. If that is the case then all fitness buffs should not take any advise from Professional Bodybuilders(Ronnie Coleman, Lee Haney, Dorian Yates, etc.)Steroids does not make your body automatically look like Paul's. You can't just take them then boom, you are Mr. Olympia. Paul Levesque gives good tips on getting in the best shape you possibly can from his experiences, just like any other bodybuilder. He gives advice on what worked for him, and how you have to experiment what will work for you. He lays a foundation and it is up to the reader what he or she takes from it. The book is very informative, with good tips on training. It also provides a good , but short bio on one of wrestling's top stars. Excellent read for wrestling fan's and add's tips for bodybuilding geeks that are not trying to be Mr. Olympia.

It's Okay,

This review is from: Triple H Making the Game: Triple H's Approach to a Better Body (Wwe) (Hardcover)
I think this book had potential to be better. I really like the stories he had on the road. I also like his attitude towards working out. I would have much rather him either done purely a workout book, or his life story. It just feels incomplete. As far as the info, good info, just wish there was more.
