Okay, I'm just reading this for the pictures, and on the off chance that if I faithfully follow its stupid instructions, someday LL Cool J will finally agree to have sex with me (I have literally been longing for that happy occasion since the fifth grade, and while my chances probably improved infinitesimally when I moved to New York in my mid-twenties, they are now once again in rapid decline towards zero).

Enough with the celebrity work out books already. Just because you guys have trainers doesn't mean you have to write a book about the fact that you think you know how to work out. The only reason these celebrities are in such fantastic shape is because the have the money and resources to pay for the best trainers. Enough of my babbling already. This book is one of many that do the same thing...Attempt to teach you how to work out. Go see your kids gym teacher. He'll charge you less.
SEXY as SIN.... that is what LL Cool J is...mmm mmmm LL does a body good and in this workout book, as long as you have to drive to strive to get the body you want.. this would be a great and helpful book. I might just check out the 360 book he did as well....
The book had some useful facts and some good information in it. However, I thought the book was poorly organized, and poorly written.
Believe me, sweetie, it´s not luck it´s logic - i´m the captain of my destiny... hell yeah-R!
Awwwww snapple, I'm about to get my ripple effect on...stay tuned for further developments
Overall it's a good book. I recommend it for someone new to training, because it's motivational and everything is clear cut - training splits (including instructions on how to do each exercise) and nutritional info.
I benefited from the explanations of certain things (like how to tell if you are over training, etc.) and I enjoyed the tips.
Design wise (layout & text) - I think it's awesome.

If for the pictures alone....it's totally worth checking out! The workouts are very intense and tough to follow if you aren't dedicated...if you have the dedication however, I recommend giving it a try. Has workouts of various intensitys as well as one section which focuses on women...which I photocopied but will be suprised if I complete.
This book's rating has been lowered because of the bad rap lyrics sprinkled throughout. If you can get over those, this would be a good workout manual, as long as you plan on working out every single day.
The pictures are nice!!!!! It had a lot of good information too!
