Book Reviews of Stretching Anatomy
Book Review: STEVE LOVES BOOK
Summary: 5 Stars
THIS BOOK IS THE TOPS IT IS OVER WHAT I EXPECTED AND IT SHOWS EVERY STREACH AND EVERY MUSCLE THAT IS BEING WORKED I DO NOT SEE HOW ANYONE WOULD NOT LOVE IT IT IS PERFECT FOR ME OR YOU THANKS TO THE WRITER SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE LAST ONE I WASTED MY MONEY ON WHICH IS SO OUT THERE I DID NOT EVEN READ AND I HAVE PLENTY OF DIPLOMAS WELL GOOD LUCK STEVEBook Review: A look from the inside
Summary: 4 Stars
A very basic and small book that gives a pretty good look at stretching from the inside view. I would have liked a bit more in details, but overall I must say it is a good book that is well worth the price for those who would like to know how the muscles are being stretched when used.Book Review: Visual presentation of familiar stretches
Summary: 4 Stars
As someone who studies anatomy I appreciate the visual representation of familiar and new stretches. It's great to see "what's under the hood." I use this book with Strength Training Anatomy, another book I suggest for a complete exercise program.Book Review: clear and concise
Summary: 5 Stars
The illustrations are outstanding and even younger students can make sense of them. It's a great addition to the ballet teacher's bookcase and is helpful when you can't quite figure out how to increase flexibility in a pupil with, for instance, limited turnout. It gives several options for stretches and shows the primary as well as the secondary muscle groups being worked on. It gives thorough information so that all the stretches are safely performed. I recommend this book for anyone currently teaching dancers/gymnasts/athletes.Book Review: Great For Massage Therapists
Summary: 5 Stars
As a L&NCTMB, I use this book with clients almost daily. It is clear, concise, & addressess various ability/skill levels. The muscles are easy to differentiate. Isolated muscles stretches as well as muscle group stretches are what this book is all about. Also, it has male and female bodies pictured, as well as male/female helpful hints.
Clients of mine who use the stretches in this book achieve a much greater level of relaxation and well being - thus making massage therapy worth even more than they are paying!
