Product Description:
No matter what your body shape, you do have the potential to develop impressive amounts of size and strength - in just 16 weeks! The mainstream body-building-style approach to strength training does not work for everyone and many men train hard with distinctly underwhelming results. The news is that if you are an ectomorph (scrawny) you need to start treating your body differently if you want to build muscle and strength. Author John Berardi, who speaks from personal experience of extreme scrawniness, explains what you have to do in the gym and in the kitchen to gain the weight and the muscle you long to have. A complete and detailed training programme runs alongside a comprehensive nutritional system that tells you exactly what to eat when and what supplements to take. Explaining the science behind the advice on what to do and eat, the authors help you to understand and realise your goals. From here on in you're in control of your own physical destiny!

Product Description:
A state-of-the-art weight-lifting and nutritional blueprint for "skinny" guys who want to pack on muscleLet's face it, naturally skinny guys are at a distinct genetic disadvantage when it comes to building muscle mass. But with the proper advice, these "hardgainers" definitely can realize their fitness goals. In Scrawny to Brawny, the authors draw on their years of practical experience as private strength and nutrition coaches to provide hardgainers with:o A progressive, state-of-the-art program that optimizes results with shorter, less frequent workouts that maximize compound exerciseso A unique, action-based perspective on nutrition that shows how to prepare quick muscle-building meals and snacks-and how to take advantage of several critical times in the day when muscle growth can be stimulated by food intakeo Vital information on how to identify and fix any weak links in their physiques that may be precursors to injuryDesigned not only for frustrated adult hardgainers but also-with its strong anti-steroid message-a terrific book for the large teen market, Scrawny to Brawny fills a significant gap in the weight-lifting arsenal.

Top Olympic lifters have it, elite gymnasts excel because of it, sprinters break the speed of light driven by it, high level bodybuilders get huge because of it. . . THE CAPACITY TO MAXIMALLY STIMULATE THE HIGH-THRESHOLD MOTOR UNITS! This is what separates the best from the rest. The fast-twitch fibers that compose the high-threshold motorunits (HTMU) exceed, by a humongous margin, the hypertrophy potential of low and medium-threshold fibers that too many of us rely on in our everyday training sessions.

Product Description:
Building Mental Muscle is one of the most stimulating books ever written about how the brain works and how you can maintain, even increase, your own mental ability. It will help you develop skills in six important areas:
 
* Memory * Emotions * Language * Math * Visualization * Executive Planning & Social Interaction
 
The authors have distilled the latest findings in brain research into fascinating short reports accessible to all readers, adding exercises and self-tests designed to stimulate the cells in different brain zones. A skill used in one domain can cross over into another: For example, when you learn the pattern of number intervals in mathematics, you may perceive a pattern of musical intervals for the first time, and thus enjoy music even more. The exercises and puzzles are intriguing challenges; the self-tests offer many opportunities to rate your social intelligence, take your personality inventory, and gauge working memory.
 
For anyone interested in self-improvement and in how the brain really works, Building Mental Muscle is essential reading.
 
Some of the research findings in Building Mental Muscle include:
 
* The simple lifestyle changes that can boost the rate at which your brain grows neurons to keep your memory sharp
* Ways to trick your emotional brain into storing new information permanently and how to retrieve it from memory when needed
* How women's and men's brains process information differently
* How brains respond to stress, solve problems, recognize faces, and handle fear
* The discovery of a hitherto unknown class of receptor cells in your eyes that your brain uses to set its own internal clock
* How to change your mood without drugs or therapy
* What you can do to combat or even reverse the gradual decline of cognitive skills as you age

Product Description:
Certain to become the bible of HIT-the training that revolutionized lifting with shorter, far-more-intense workouts-this impassioned guide is the last word on how to achieve explosive growth safely, without steroids!

For many dedicated bodybuilders, the weight-lifting theories of Arthur Jones are gospel. It was Jones, the inventor of Nautilus exercise equipment, who first discovered that short, intense workouts could produce better results than the long, high-volume workouts then in vogue.

Even though research into Jones's methods has proved them correct, a number of high-profile strength coaches use HIT to train their athletes, and the bodybuilding magazine Ironman does HIT-based features every issue, there still are no major HIT books in stores. This new book-by champion bodybuilder, exercise researcher, and best-selling author Ellington Darden, who is a Jones disciple and friend-shows lifters how to apply the master's teachings, along with some new HIT concepts to achieve extraordinary results.

At the heart of the book is a complete, illustrated, six-month course for explosive growth. Exercise by exercise, workout by workout, the reader is shown precisely what to do, and perhaps even more important, what not to do. Charging that too many bodybuilders follow a more-is-better approach-too many exercises, too many sets, and too much frequency-and rely on steroids to compensate for depleted recovery ability, Darden shows why HIT, steroid-free and healthy, is the best way to safely build muscle. Finally, the exercise religion Arthur Jones founded, and Darden fine-tuned, has its bible.
