Great

I accidentally bought this to save time. typically exercise books you do need to see the pictures but I'm very Advanced and have been working out for over 35 years. so ultimately I really had no problem with listening to this and it was interesting but the depth was limited as an advanced bodybuilder I did like it and would recommend it though you may want to consider getting the print copy. i was able visualize everything and thankfully found renewed inspiration.

Loved the information presented.

No dislikes with this. Good information. Easy to follow along while working. Overall great book.

he was ahead of his time!

This book was very enjoyable and informative. He lays out principles that have been proven to work.

the different mindset he had to go against everything he thought he knew

I like the whole book from start to finish. The insight an discipline it took to learn his body an continue to train like only he knew how was simple amazing.

AI generated and repetitive

This wasn’t worth the read. It was basically Mike’s Wikipedia page read out loud. Very little insights provided unless you have absolutely no background on Mike.

Computer read

I’m sure the information in this book is excellent, but the computer reading makes it impossible for me to listen to it. Every period at the end of a sentence is pronounced as Dot. It calls Reps, Rapes, repes and almost everything except reps. I’ll be returning this one.
