This book is the culmination of many years of research into weight training by people who love and are serious about it.

Among the many authors who generously helped to complete this book, some are unfortunately no longer with us.
However, the many research results they left behind during their lifetimes are brought back to life in this book, allowing us to learn a lot from them once again.
The IM series is planned to be published in four volumes.

I would recommend this book to people like this!

●People who are just starting weight training ●People who are struggling to improve their weak areas ●People who want to learn more about bodybuilding ●People who aspire to have a muscular body ●People who love reading Ironman but want to read the articles in one place ●People who want to learn about the training of the greatest bodybuilders of all time
