NROLFW Thread!

Just ordered New Rules of Lifting for Women from Barnes & Noble! Just wanted to say I'm ecstatic and can't wait for it to get here!

Anyone want to share their experience with NROLFW? C'mon, get me pumped up!

    Just ordered it yesterday - awaiting delivery too. Can't wait!!

    Have you started it yet? How are you finding it?
  • I don't know if this is legit on MFP to say that you can save your money and download it there http://kickass.to/the-new-rules-of-lifting-for-women-gnv64-t6413576.html#comment
    If not, delete this post.

    There's a NROL4W group, if you're interested in checking it out.

    I got it last week.

    It's not written like a "dummies" book - i advise reading it like a regular book outside of the gym. Unless you're experienced, you really shouldn't expect to just flip to the exercise illustrations and just do them. Try to do that and you'll probably wish you hadn't.

    The exercises are illustrated adequately, but probably could be better. I'm partial to an occasional "what not to do" photo, which you won't get here (but that's just preference)

    I also like that its not JUST weights, but also body weight exercises, too.

    There's the occasional corn-ball commentary, but it's not too bad.

    I hope this gives you a little bit of insight.
