Editorial Review: With information on strengthening and toning the legs, buttocks, abs, and back, Women's Strength Training Anatomy provides full-color, detailed anatomical illustrations of exercises for these hard-to-shape areas. What makes this book unique is that readers can see the muscles at work during each exercise, like an X ray of the body in motion. Are there definite anatomical differences in the way men and women should build their bodies?

If you work out to strengthen and shape your body or if you help women get stronger and more defined, this is one book you need for understanding the female form and getting the most from your exercises.

Rating: - A BRILLIANT BOOK for WOMEN who use WEIGHTS
I LOVE this book!! Hiss Boo Sucks to all those who whine about it not including the woman's upper body. When I discovered this, after having already been totally impressed by the quality and thoroughness of the medical knowledge, anatomical detail, terminology and artwork in this book, I immediately ordered Delavier's STRENGTH TRAINING ANATOMY, the original volume, which does include both men and women, and which gives a full description of the arms, neck, shoulders and chest.

Rating: - One of the best books of its kind.

Rating: - The easy way to learn exercises!
I adore this book and have bought it for several friends! The explanation it provides for different exercises is excellent and easy to follow. My only complaint is that it doesn't include shoulder exercises! Guess women aren't supposed to have shoulders????
