Atlas True
Finding The Best Bodybuilding Books by Julian Hee
They say that knowledge is power, and this is true in more ways than one. Not only is knowledge power in the sense that one is more suited to take on the challenges of the day, but knowledge can be directly converted into physical power and strength if one only takes the time to read the right bodybuilding books. Here are five books that every bodybuilder should read if they want to pack on muscle and stay fit.
Dynamic Tension, by Charles Atlas
Charles Atlas, the man from the back of the comic book who used to be a “97 pound weakling” before a bully kicked sand in his face. While the ads may be worth a laugh, Atlas was, in fact, a bodybuilder and health expert of some renown. While much of his book is outdated, having been written in the 1950s, the vast majority of it remains good, solid advice, not just for building muscle, but for living a healthy and rewarding lifestyle in general.
The New Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding, Arnold Schwarzenegger
Much of this book may, in fact, have been ghost written, with Arnold simply providing some advice, but that advice is solid. The New Encyclopedia provides enough solid information not only on what exercises one can perform to build muscle but on how these exercises work, and why. More than a workout manual, the New Encyclopedia is a full course on the science of bodybuilding.
Weight Training for Idiots, Various
The “for idiots” series of books takes a simplistic approach more often than not, but the one thing that they do provide is plenty of footnotes, a ton of well researched information, and solid, practical advice and, in the case of this book, in particular, goals for getting better, getting bigger, and building exactly the body that one would want to build.
Strength Training Anatomy, Frederic Delavier
For anyone who has ever wanted to know exactly what muscle groups they’re working out and when, for anyone who’s ever wanted an encyclopedic knowledge of the human muscle system, Strength Training Anatomy is perhaps the most complete, comprehensive and well written guide to the human body as it pertains to bodybuilders. The advice found in Strength Training Anatomy is solid, but the real meat of the book is the information on the muscles themselves.
Dumbbell Training for Strength and Fitness, Matt Brzycki and Fred Fornicola
Dumbbell Training is a great book for anyone who likes hitting the heavy weights and wants to have a comprehensive idea of everything they can get out of this style of workout, and how to get it. One of the most comprehensive niche workout books ever written.
