Building the Body: 2012 - Summer

Building the Body is published 4 times a year and gives a new slant on bodybuilding. It’s all about how to get the most from your training by having a holistic approach, paying attention to all aspects of your workouts, nutrition, attitude and recuperation. Unlike other bodybuilding mags that contain 75% advertising, it contains no paid advertising, just helpful information based on my personal experience and that of my clients.

In this edition:
1. My Favorite Super Sets -- describes the best combinations I've found for getting a fantastic pump.

2. Life's a Beach -- why I build my own beach.

3. The Amazing Progress of Kirk Steffke -- he completely transformed his physique in less than one year!
