    You Are Your Own Gym: The Bible of Bodyweight Exercises por Mark Lauren (caimanjosh)
    caimanjosh: Both probably about the best bodyweight training books you'll find. I think Bret's knowledge of strength training is probably better, but Mark Lauren's book is more comprehensive and complete. You can't go wrong with either.

During a brief flirtation with a martial arts club, I learned just how effective old-fashioned bodyweight exercises can be. Now I'm looking for more exercises to add to my routine, and this book is a great resource. It's helping in two ways: by suggesting exercises for areas I want to work on, and by showing me what some exercises I already know really hit. I have several of the publisher's illustrated anatomy for fitness and sports, and I always find them useful and insightful. ( )

Extremely good overview of exercises that will help you build strength using just or primarily the weight of your own body. Contreras points out exactly what muscles you will work primarily and secondarily with each exercise, along with very well done illustrations of what and where those muscles are. He also provides thorough and detailed guidance on how to set up a variety of strength training programs, including providing samples of four different types of programs with sample weekly sets of workouts.

Most important, he points out, you can do a lot with just bodyweight training. Most gymnasts use no more than their bodyweight in getting ready for competition, and they are strong and look good. ( )

This book is an excellent book for those who wish to use their own body weight in strength training. It contains tips on creating a program. The book is divided by the muscle group. This book is most appropriate for those who are beginners and at an intermediate level who wish to add some variety to their routine. I would also say that it would be helpful for physical trainers. The book includes excellent illustrations of the exercise to be performed and the muscles that are worked.

This, and the series of books like it, are awesome. I don't know how much body builders need to know about anatomy, but for the curious, like me, understanding what muscles are being used, and how, is quite interesting. The other purpose of the book, training techniques using bodyweight strength are also quite useful. There are several useful tables in the back, that cover routines, for examples. One of the tables includes exercises and types of movements, but I don't really see me using that. Overall, it is a good reference to exercises and muscle function, and can be scanned pretty quickly for an understanding about an effective training program.
It would have been nice to see how bodyweight training could be integrated with other bodybuilding activities. ( )

I am always on the lookout for a good book of basic exercises that don't need a lot of equipment since I travel a lot for my job. This book of body exercises fits the bill perfectly.

The exercises in this book are well organized by muscle group and each exercise is described in detail with ideas on how to ramp it up. Also, each exercise has a transparent human performing the exercise showing exactly what muscles should be worked. A very helpful addition that confirms if they are being done correctly. At the end of the book is chart showing all the exercises and which muscle groups are being worked with few basic workouts to accomplish your goals. There are no strict workouts here, but this book provides you the basic structure of a workout and plenty of exercises to design your own.

Body weight exercises are not going to add bulk, but if you are looking to stay in shape this book is not a bad start. ( )
