" And for heaven's sake, if you have Arnold's 'Encyclopedia of Modern
Bodybuilding', burn it....the book is heresy....and you will never
recover from his routines, not even the beginner routines. It is
pointless to go to the gym day after day and beat yourself in to
submission only to find that you are stagnant. Work hard but work smart
and do not allow your zeal and enthusiasm to drag you into an
overtrained state. "

^ I thought this was considered one of the best, if one, the best books the is on the subject.
If you don't follow the routines is it still good? What you're saying is the book is too damanding, not leaving enough time for recovery? Arnie did juice in the old days.
