I hear that HGH chicken is a must have.

What a waste, better shoot yourself, eat the chicken and still lie about the natural status, this works fine for some people as well.

I know this has been discussed before, but the search function sucks big time and i cannot find any thread.

I am looking for some good books about BB, anything from BB culture like "Muscle: Confessions of an Unlikely Bodybuilder" or "Pumping Iron", training books like "Starting Strength", Nutrition (Chris Aceto?) or William Llewellyn's "Anabolics".

Just give me a hint on your favorites.

Bill Pearl had a great book with like thousands of exercises in it, can't remember the name but I'm sure u can find it if u try

This is a great read but you can tell Wendy Leigh just has it in for Arnold and received most of her information from those who did as well (mainly Rick Wayne), she offered Barbara Outland $25,000 to put her name to what she said (which was fuck all) so who knows what she offered RW to exaggerate shit because he was jealous

You can get it for like $5-8 on Abebooks and that's shipped

However i am still interested in what is said in this book does anyone know where to get it cheap? Cheapest i could find on the net was over $50 shipped...or can anyone give us a break down on here on what was said in it

The Rick wayne book covers Weider and and general bodybuilding silliness from the late 60's- mid 80's. It's gossipy and apparently Wayne has a nice writing style. Check Ebay, copies show up in the $20-30 range, but I've been too cheap and not interested enough to buy a copy. If you're in the U.S., you might be able to get it on inter-library loan.

Another book that is said to be good is "The Iron Game" by David Carter, published in the late 70's, it covers all the nastiness of Venice Beach and California bodybuilding from that time. It is expensive used as well.
