Book Reviews of The BackSmart Fitness Plan: A Total-Body Workout to Strengthen and Heal Your Back

Book Review: BackSmart Is Simply, Real Smart!
Summary: 5 Stars

I just recently received this book in the mail and let me tell you that I was very impressed with the entire book. From the initial introduction from the author where he made a simple, couple of inches mistake that would forever affect his back, to the injury prevention section at the back of the book, this book is simply loaded with sound and valid information about exercise and your back.

The author, in my opinion, really has a lot of valuable "been there" information to share since he himself has hurt his back and knows from painful firsthand experience just what it is like to live with a bad back. Unlike someone who doesn't know what it's like, Dr. Weiss speaks from experience, and in my book, that speaks volumes unto itself.

I found a lot of good information in this book that I have started implementing in my own training routine and even though I don't suffer from back pain (and hope I never do), this old adage rings especially true here, "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."

The BackSmart Fitness Plan by Dr. Adam Weiss is that ounce of prevention!

Another good book by the author is The AbSmart Fitness Plan: The Proven Workout to Lose Inches and Strengthen Your Core Without Straining Your Back
