I’m not a woman.
Now that we’ve cleared that up – I can say that this book is excellent. The author has a sharp wit, and hits all the key points. It will keep you entertained while addressing all the concerns you might have.
My only criticism is that the book is a bit light on exercise specific biomechanics (why to do one exercise over another). Highly recommended.
