I give it five stars because I think it is great for this audience -- it might just be the most accessible of the most scientific.I think Poliquin's credentials as a strength coach give him authority. In trying to base everything on science, it would have been nice to have more in-depth discussion of the studies his conclutions are based on, or at least to provide citations. By not doing so, he opens himself to the same kind of ridicule he lays out in this book on less scientifically-based programs and experts. ### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars Buy it, but expect some negative aspects... *by S***T on Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2002* I generally think this is a great book, but here is the caveat: I agree with others who wrote that the low quality of the photos, low paper quality, and poor editing are not in line with the high price. I would also like to see more example routines.Having said that, buy this book and carefully sift through it. It does contain a wealth of info that can be incorporated into any type of routine depending on your training goals. Poliquin clearly knows his stuff, but very obviously needed a better editor and a better photographer. This book would benefit from clearer pictures to go along with the explanations, and the author assumes too much previous knowledge regarding exercises. Some that he mentioned were totally unfamiliar to me, yet there weren't photos of many exercises to illustrate just what the heck he's talking about.The real beauty of this book is in the myriad ways to alter your own training regimen, even in small ways, to shake up and improve your training.Hopefully this book's weaknesses will be addressed in his newest book, which I have yet to read. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Beyond useful. *by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on October 11, 2016* There's so much insights in this book. I found myself highlighting almost the entire book because there's so much useful information that can be readily applied. One example is when Mr. Poliquin talks about the benefits of tempo in a lift and how it can produce different results depending on how long it takes to complete the two.He gives endless examples of workouts. That by itself is enough. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/87919032-the-poliquin-principles-successful-methods-for-strength-and-mass-development](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/87919032-the-poliquin-principles-successful-methods-for-strength-and-mass-development) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
