### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘Learning kinesiology and muscle function is an ongoing process” – no nonsense fitness!
*by G***P on October 14, 2021*

British certified fitness coach and author James Atkinson has published ten valuable books on his advice for encouraging good health – FITNESS & EXERCISE MOTIVATION, FITNESS FOR WOMEN OF ANY AGE, JIM’S WEIGHT TRAINING GUIDE. JIM’S WEIGHT TRAINING & BODY BUILDING WORKOUT PLAN, MARATHON TRAINING, TOTAL FITNESS FOR WHEELCHAIR USERS, HEALTH AND FITNESS TIPS THAT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE, HOME WORKOUT FOR BEGINNERS, HOME WORKOUT CIRCUIT TRAINING, RESISTANCE BAND TRAINING, and now BODYWEIGHT TRAINING AND CALISTHENICS. He covers all the bases with actionable results!James now encourages us to bring the ‘gym’ home – a feasible and impressive way to build strength and mobility at home without all the ‘tools’ that fitness gyms provide: instead, using our own body weight in a planned and progressive workout. As he states, ‘Bodyweight training is an excellent choice of resistance training for almost everyone. For the beginner or senior trainer it can be an entry point to fitness that will yield unbelievable results as body weight exercise is often more than enough to challenge previously unconditioned muscle groups with progressive overload, leading to results that can be superior to the same intensity of training from barbells and dumbbells, etc. In my experience, I believe that this is because of the functional nature of bodyweight training and calisthenics that lend itself to core stability, along with a bigger emphasis on or stabilizer muscles.’One of the many reasons James’ book is so valuable is his instruction of functional muscle groups, explaining clearly how all muscle groups (back, legs, shoulders, biceps, triceps etc) work – a factor that makes fitness training educational and far more beneficial. His exercising with bodyweight include calisthenics and isometric training, both of which have a strong focus on muscular strength and growth.’ After some solid mental instruction, he moves on to physical guidance with The Big Five – Push=ups’ Pullups, Dips, Shoulder Press, Squats – explaining the dynamics and illustrating the exercises (excellent images that define the muscle groups visually!) - of each. All promises made in his intro are fulfilled – and we benefit!All of James’ books provide supportive encouragement to the reader for achieving and maintaining fitness, delivered in a user-friendly manner. This is one of the finest books for realistic, informed and results-producing fitness books this reader has encountered! Very highly recommended. Grady Harp, October 21

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Get a better editor
*by J***S on January 25, 2025*

Not a bad beginner book. However the editor needs more experience, some poorly formed sentences.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good common sense and none of the fluff
*by W***R on January 6, 2024*

Simple and straighforward writing. Useful. I've already started doing some of the exercises. Sometimes we want the wrong things in such books. We want pictures and more pictures. This book has a nice mix of advice and suggestions that are vital to read. The pictures are very nice drawings. Few know that drawings are often better than pictures because of how certain aspects of the body, birds, animals, etc can emphasize certain characteristics. Nice book and worth the money.I am already doing some of the exercises.
