Bodybuilding books?

[alexISthrowed]

I'm always looking to further my knowledge of bodybuilding. Has anyone read any good books about nutrition, training, bodybuilding, chemicals, etc.? I read muscular development and that's about it.

Nothing beats the internet.

Arnold's Encyclopedia and Men's Body Sculpting are 2 of the best books I've seen/read.

The MBS book is much more current n goes in to great detail on diet, however no book compares to this site.
If a beginner were to ask, I would highly recommend these books, but for many on here, the books are just too basic. I think most regulars on here are much more advanced in BB knowledge than the average gym go-er and though these would be a refresher or provide some motivation, they aren't going to teach you much that you don't already know.

On the other hand, I would like to get my hands on The Steroid Bible. It's pretty pricey though. They go for almost $200 for a used paperback. Anyone ever read this? Is it really worth all the hype?

I have Arnold's encyclopedia of bodybuilding and it's interesting but very outdated. I think my old man pirated the steroid bible and printed it out so ill see if he still has it. I definitely don't need books aimed at beginners, was just curious to see if their were any books on more advanced principles.

Stay away from this one. It is loaded with fake reviews and is nothing more then an advertisement for a website.

There is another good book "The Laymans Guide to Steroids " is pretty good as well. You can get it for free online from some torrent sites.
