If you are interested in getting fitter and stronger and you have little experience with exercise, and/or a tight budget, this could well be the book for you. Charles 'Bronco' Bronson delivers straight forward, easy to follow instruction on basic strength and endurance building exercises that can be done without any expensive equipment. Covering some basic warm-ups, staple exercises, nutrition and general health (as well as a lot more) the book is well structured and clearly (if not brilliantly) written. There are useful black & white photographs and some great original artwork by the man himself to illustrate the techniques required.

If you are approaching this book with a background in health & fitness, particularly weight training/bodybuilding, this book may not be for you. Although I'm sure at least some of the information in the book could be useful to anyone at any level of fitness, the Solitary Programme isn't (by Bronco's own admission) for budding Arnies. The aim of the book is to instruct an individual (male or female) on how to build a fit, strong, functional body - not necessarily a body that will win bodybuilding competitions.

If you do have a background in weight training/bodybuilding, you may find some of the information a little basic for your needs, but it is easy to be critical. At the end of the day, the proof is in the pudding, and Charles Bronson is a phenomenally strong man (I once saw a TV documentary which described how he threw a fridge freezer UP a flight of stairs!) and it is documented in the book how he punched through bullet proof glass! (and he does have witnesses!)

To sum up - if you are looking to win Mr (or Miss) Universe, then this probably isn't the book for you. However, if you are looking to build a strong functional body and improve your sense of wellbeing on a tight or non-existent budget, this could be the best ...[money]... you'll ever spend.
