Genre: Nonfiction—Health & Fitness

Summary & Review:
Fitness instructor Michael Matthews presents his guide to building muscle and strength and maintaining a natural, lean physique. Included in the book are motivation and nutrition tips, a guide to supplements, workout plans, and descriptions of how to the do the recommended exercise safely and correctly.
Matthews spent a lot of time in this book covering things like basic physiology and anatomy. While this could be helpful to readers who don’t have much a background in human biology, for me it was a slog through information I already was familiar with. But, once I got into the meat of the book, i.e. the sections on proper dietary regimens for cutting, bulking, or maintaining, and the exercise plans, it became much more interesting. I think I am pretty well sold on the plan—I like how he focuses on a few core exercises rather than a bunch of silly fads. We’ll see how it goes.
