Ask the Author Men's Health Fitness Director, Lou Schuler Q: Will I be able to increase the difficulty of my program? A: Absolutely-that's the key to seeing the results you want. Whether you're just starting out or have been lifting weights for years, the THE MEN'S HEALTH HOME WORKOUT BIBLE has a program for you. Don't think for a minute that this is some "lite" workout program just because you're doing it at home.

THE MEN'S HEALTH HOME WORKOUT BIBLE isn't just for guys who want to get back on track. It's for anyone who wants to start or maintain a challenging workout program at home. You'll defy genetics (and time constraints) and build BIG muscles.

Get motivated. Stay motivated. Burst through plateaus. Work muscles unconsciously-the way you do in real life. You can go the health club and still not get results like these:

• WARNING: this one will pop your shirt buttons. Lift this way to pack on the pecs. We'll tell you how on page 169.
  
  
• Bumping up your bench press weight too quickly (or too slowly) is a sure-fire way to fail. We'll give you the formula that keeps your muscles growing… and growing… and growing, on Page 123.
  
  
• Burst through plateaus and see DRAMATIC RESULTS by making the minor changes we suggest on pages 163 to 303.
