Arnold's Bodybuilding Encyclopedia

[[Focus]]

I thought he already admitted to having been on 'roids? Sometime after he said, 'The Governator commands you to say no to drugs, children. Who is your daddy, and what does he do?'

I mean after reading that bit about how leg training consisted of going out into the woods with 8 each of kegs of beer and groupies and doing 7000 reps of beer keg squats and then emptying the kegs into their faces and then emptying their other faces into the groupies, I became somewhat suspicious.

I thought the Encyclopedia was alright. In the way that Ironman magazine is alright. The workouts in there are pretty insane, though. What he calls 'a beginner routine' I'm pretty sure he means to call 'a beginner with metahuman recovery ability routine'. Hint: metahuman recovery ability is usually a metaphor.

I heard that in one of these books (don't remember which one) there were supposed to be descriptions of exercises for different muscle groups, and there were supposed to be come cool ones who aren't really mainstream today. Is there anything like that?

Education has a description of exercises by muscle groups. He then instructs you how to do them and such. Then he tells you that you should x sets and y reps. A lot of 5 sets of 10 reps if I remember correctly. Either way, believe what you want, Arnold was the man. His techniques arent for the average gym goer of today. So criticizing it in that sense is ridiculous.

Whether he took heavy roids or not, you still have to work your ass off.

You guys have any links to the e-book?

Must have been uploaded online by now.

go to your libraries website and request it. then go pick it up.
