How to Train for a Better Physique: The Truth About Weight Training Success and the Secrets to How Successful Bodybuilders REALLY Train
That is the basic premise of this book. If you watch someone like Lee Haney going through a weight training workout, you will see a difference in how they approach it relative to everyone else.
It's not just about this or that number of reps, or whether or not you "train hard." Successful bodybuilders approach their training sessions differently than those who spend years spinning their wheels.
This book is about the concentration it takes when you're inside the weight room. It's about how to get the most out of every rep, of every set, of every workout. Yes, it's about the mind-muscle connection. It's about listening ti internal cues , your muscles, and your body. It's about how to approach weight training and bodybuilding intelligently and with the right mindset. It's about training hard, without training just your ego. It's not about watching the clock or counting out a certain tempo. It's about learning to listen to your body.
There is info here about workout program design, muscle soreness and DOMS (what's acceptable, what isn't), the truth about tempo training, rest times, exercise range of motion, what makes for so-called "heavy" training, listening to your body and its internal cues, and more.
This book is not a workout program or a weight training program. It's about how to approach every bodybuilding workout program.
Learn what true bodybuilding training really looks like and feels like.

I picked this up because it was $2 on the kindle store and the Amazon preview was ok. I got suckered. The "book" is a long internet article. It spends a lot of time telling you what not to do and little time telling you what to do. In short: don't over complicate your workout, listen to your biofeedback, pay attention mentally, it's not all about weight, stimulate don't annihilate (concentrate on muscle and don't train to make it sore). That's the whole book "should do's." It has a lot more fluff about what not to do. Wouldn't recommend reading this.

Train the muscle not the motion
This was a great book that gets passed some of the training fallacies. Great book to learn how to build the mind-muscle connection.
