Description

The Matrix Principle is a breakthrough in weight training for everyone who wants to build a healthy and muscular physique without the use of harmful drugs. Drawing on the most recent advances in exercise physiology, this book explains how and why muscle growth takes place, and why some forms of exercise are more effective than others in fostering muscular development. The book asks questions such as: is weight training beneficial to children and older adults? what kind of diet best promotes muscle gain? what are the effects of anabolic steroids?
