What Is The Magic of Symmetry? In this landmark classic course, world renowned bodybuilder Steve Davis has set down the principles that will guide you to your best physique ever. Steve will show you step by step through detailed, precise instruction and informative, eye-catching photos how you can transform your ordinary body into a sensation, head-turning blend of muscle size, definition, and perfect proportion. Never before has anyone gone into the kind of detail you’ll find here.Steve shares his deep insights into the methods of training and nutrition that built his physique, often regarded as one of the most proportionate, symmetrical wonders in the history of bodybuilding. Inside these pages, you’ll learn: >> how to evaluate your physique for symmetry >> exercises to do (and the ones not to do) for greater symmetry >> how to eat for symmetry and muscularity >> how to restructure your physique >> how to bring it all together for contests Steve holds nothing back on his revolutionary training and dietary techniques, which produced the first of what is called the “New Breed” of physique. Instead of merely undifferentiated size, with mediocre proportions, Steve developed a dynamic whole, a startling physique which combined elements of the right amount of size, startling definition, and terrific proportion—all of which together as one produced The Magic of Symmetry. The Magic of Symmetry can now be yours!

Start with a single shape. Repeat it in some way—translation, reflection over a line, rotation around a point—and you have created symmetry. Symmetry is a fundamental phenomenon in art, science, and nature that has been captured, described, and analyzed using mathematical concepts for a long time. Inspired by the geometric intuition of Bill Thurston and empowered by his own analytical skills, John Conway, with his coauthors, has developed a comprehensive mathematical theory of symmetry that allows the description and classification of symmetries in numerous geometric environments. This richly and compellingly illustrated book addresses the phenomenological, analytical, and mathematical aspects of symmetry on three levels that build on one another and will speak to interested lay people, artists, working mathematicians, and researchers.

“All hits no skips. I was incredibly moved by these poems.” —Roxane Gay, via Goodreads From National Poetry Series winner Su Cho, chosen by Paige Lewis, a debut poetry collection about immigration, memory, and a family’s lexicon Language and lore are at the core of The Symmetry of Fish, a moving debut about coming-of-age in the middle of nowhere. With striking and tender insight, it seeks to give voice to those who have been denied their stories, and examines the way phrases and narratives are passed down through immigrant families—not diluted over time, but distilled into potency over generations. In this way, a family's language is not lost but continuously remade, hitched to new associations, and capable of blooming anew, with the power to cut across space and time to unearth buried memories. The poems in The Symmetry of Fish insist that language is first and foremost a bodily act; even if our minds can't recall a word or a definition, if we trust our mouths, expression will find us—though never quite in the forms we expect.

Steve Davis, one of the greatest bodybuilders ever, known for his flawless proportions, magical symmetry and total muscularity, achieved amazing muscular condition in 1980. The bodybuilding world marveled at Steve’s physique and wanted to know how he did it. Steve tells you how in this book. He gives the exact sets and reps, exercises and the precise nutrition he used to achieve this “Raw Muscularity,” the rippling, hard, defined physique he’s known for. For years, this information was thought to be missing, but thanks to Dennis B. Weis, the Yukon Hercules and “Dean of Bodybuilding Writers,” Steve Davis’ story of how he achieved his remarkable physique condition comes to light. It’s from a 1981 seminar by Steve Davis which Dennis Weis recorded. The material was rediscovered, so the lost story of raw muscularity has been found, and is now available in this book. Nothing is held back. Steve Davis tells how he trained and ate to achieve what many have said is the best bodybuilding shape of his life. As a bonus, there’s an interview with Steve who tells how he achieved his miraculous transformation a dozen years earlier, when he lost nearly 100 pounds and transformed himself into a muscular work of art. Join Steve Davis, one of the greatest bodybuilders ever, as he shares his secrets of Raw Muscularity with you.
