Optimum Anabolics
By Jeff Anderson - Review

 
 


Review by Rahul Alvares

Jeff Anderson has been making quite some news these days; his new book "Optimum Anabolics" has been written about and advertised so often lately, I just had to get myself a copy. Anderson was virtually unknown to me some months ago, but I know he's not a newcomer.

I read an article by Lewis Wolk sometime ago about Jeff locking himself in a dark room with his computer for six months till he had finished writing Unleashed (a book on boosting testosterone levels). Lewis is still singing praises about that book, and I've joined the band giving him backing vocals! (By the way that book is for free download, so make sure you get a copy before that Muscle Nerd changes his mind and puts a price tag on it).

Coming back to "Optimum Anabolics" I must tell you that this is one of the best books on bodybuilding I have ever read. Exceptionally controversial, Anderson attacks the very foundation of bodybuilding.

To give you an example; "Optimum Anabolics", in one of its training cycles, uses severe protein deprivation as an anabolic trigger to boost testosterone and growth hormone levels producing as a result huge gains in muscle mass.

And Oh No…this is not a one day protein deprivation period, if that's what you are thinking. It's a full cycle lasting weeks!

Optimum Anabolics is so full of information, this review would have to be the size of a booklet to cover all aspects. I don't think it necessary, however, to do so. I am sure you will love this book. So instead I am just going to list a few points to give you an idea of what the book is like.

Some of the aspects dealt with in this book include (in no particular order):

  • Isolation v/s Compound Exercises -which are the best exercises for each body part and why.
  • Pre Exhaust training and Super Sets -how these amazing training techniques can be exploited to their full potential.
  • Cardio and HIT training - the best strategies for fat loss.
  • Diet Charts - there is some excellent information in this section on food to eat, supplements, timings, GI ratings etc.
  • Calculations - mostly calculations for muscle gain, fat loss, different metabolisms, carbs, proteins etc.
  • Exercise description encyclopedia - descriptions on all the exercises, with notes on how to perform the best ones (averaging twelve for each body part)

Anderson lays a lot of stress on performing the exercise with correct form, the pump effect, body weight exercises and training to failure.

Anderson has left no stone unturned in writing this book. The training techniques taught in the book make sure also that you stimulate both the fast twitch and slow twitch muscle fibers. This kind of training will ensure that the muscle is exercised in a holistic way for its optimum growth and development.

I don't think I need to say anything more. As far as drawbacks are concerned I can't think of any. Like most books on bodybuilding however this is largely targeted at the male trainees. Female trainees will also benefit a lot from reading "Optimum Anabolics" - though with the amount of testosterone dripping all over it they might find it a little too thick and musky to get through!

Jeff Anderson has a very humorous style of writing. This, coupled with his very practical mind makes "Optimum Anabolics" truly enjoyable to read.

Optimum Anabolics is a must have for every bodybuilder.
