I promised to give you a review of , so here goes:

This e-book is 80 pages, packed with some of Ferruggia’s favorite routines.  It is composed of simple, intermediate and advanced routines.  Some of them are designed for linear progression (just lifting a little more each week), while others are based on periodization (intentionally starting a cycle with less weight and building up to heavier weights each week).

The workouts consist of 3 exercises at most.  There are 3, 4, and 5 day training options, but Ferruggia is partial to the 3 day a week training schedule.  I also like the 3 day split–I have found it to be the ideal balance of training and rest (not to mention very practical for those of us with lives outside of the gym).

I like this e-book because the principles are sound: hit a few basic, compound lifts and go home.  Keep things simple.  Get stronger in the basic lifts and you’ll end up with a bigger, more powerful physique. I also like the value–you won’t find many more cost-effective training manuals out there.

UPDATE: I started implementing one of the routines from this book since I first wrote this review (the “70’s Strength and Mass” workout).  I LOVE it!

I give a thumbs-up.  Justif you’d like to check it out.

I also endorse other programs created by Ferruggia.  You can read my reviews and email me if you have any questions:
