Kurzbeschreibung
If you thought Arnold Schwarzenegger put Graz, Austria on the bodybuilding map, how about Stuart McRobert and Nicosia, Cyprus? Imagine, one man, on a Mediterranean island no less, who has the audacity to directly challenge most contemporary bodybuilding advice. Instead of being another me-too bodybuilding book, Brawn is unique: its tone is serious, its manner evangelical, but most importantly, its focus is on things that actually work for the average trainee. "Drugs are evil and the scourge of bodybuilding," says McRobert, in effect "and forget about Mr O-type training - it just won't work for most people. I'll tell you some things that do work". Brawn has most bodybuilding books beaten hands down in the depth department, but its biggest contribution just might be in breadth: Brawn introduces you to over 90 percent of the factors that will determine your ultimate success in the gym. This is a very useful book, which can help a lot of people to make tremendous bodybuilding progress.

one of the best
15. Oktober 2007
Format:Taschenbuch
This is one of the best bodybuilding books ever written. I have many old and new. It cuts through the hype and unrealistic pronouncements of the commercial magazines and provides essential and practical information. It illucidates clearly and emphatically one of the most substantive elements of productive bodybuilding i.e. the necessity of heavy leg work. I personally wasted many years of training, believing that I did not need to work my legs for results. After reading Brawn and therefore shifting my emphasis to include squats and deadlifts, results magically occurred. This book has the information to get you big and strong without resorting to drug use. It is a classic.

Basics get it done
13. November 2008
Format:Taschenbuch
I got this book this year (2008) before the Summer. I wanted to try a new approach to my lifting.I'm 50 years old and have been hitting the weights since the 80's.I always OVERTRAINED.I went back to basics and made gains that were really impressive.I went from 160 to a pumped 180!Deadlifts/Rows/Presses/Squats are the foundation to his theory.Let me tell you ,It works.Not only for a Old Guy like me but my Teenage Son shot up like a Monster on 2 days a week!People accused him of using Roids but it was hard work..dedication and a lot of Chicken Breasts and Whey Shakes!I think people just starting out will make fantasitc gains as well as people who need to change up the routine for 6 months.Another thing I liked was I trained hard but had more time off from the Gym to to other things ! Give Brawn a Shot you will be glad you did.

for the mass of men
23. Juni 2009
Format:Taschenbuch
I got this book after buying "Build muscle, lose fat.." (from Amazon), as I wanted to get McRobert's overall view on our physical body and weight resistance exercise. This was and is a needed book, for it gives much sensible advice and encouragement to the average man or woman. The view is more that from Everyman. In the "Build Muscle book he goes into much more detail about the individual weight exercises and posture and performance of them. Brawn is more the overall view.
When I started to lift weights many years ago, the first sensible counsel I got was from York Barbell magazines, Strength and Health, and Muscular Development, and then as I discovered it Iron Man. There writers like John Grimek, Harry Paschall, Brad Steiner, or Hoffman offered advice for beginners, then for intermediate experience weight athletes, that worked in real life. The beginner was given a good basic programme to start with, to gain some strength, and then led along.
These were far better than the weedy rags, I mean the weider magazines, which had a lot of hype, advertisement, gossip about bodybuilding, and routines that some top ifbb bodybuilders presumably(and may well have) used to train for the olympia or Mr. Universe. I would page through these at the news stand, and I remember about one article for the beginner.
I like McRobert's contribution real well. His books are one good place to begin. Rippetoe's book Starting Strength is another.
The only thing that bothered me was the tone of complaint, even though I agree with his complaint. He writes about the genetically blessed bodybuilders and their training, and how most folks fit into a hard gaining, or slower gaining reality of life. For these folks, his ideas on training are very useful and helpful. The book would be more pleasant to read in the early going if there were not so strong a tone of complaint, however much I agree with his basic point. For this I subtracted one star, even though it is a fine book that deals with so much real world training advice.
