Reviews for "Anatomy of Exercise" (in the same series):
"Fascinating ... useful for anyone interested in enhancing their
fitness routine as well as fitness instructors who want to visually
show their customers the benefits of each exercise." --American
Reference Book Annual
"One of the best books written as a reference manual for
understanding exercise... Great how-to instructions." --Men's
Exercise
The winning format of the Anatomy of... series was established
quickly with the first title, "The Anatomy of Exercise." The
success of the series lies not only in the innovative presentation
but in the variety of titles offered, which gives readers the
opportunity to pick and choose according to their needs and
goals.
"Anatomy of Strength and Conditioning" is a great how-to
reference for those who wish to "up their game" and train for
activities requiring high performance -- strength, speed, aerobic
capacity and accuracy -- all essential to success in such sports as
soccer, hockey, skiing, climbing and rowing as well as marathons
and other endurance activities. The book is also an ideal way to
achieve overall fitness.
Like each of the other titles in the series this book: Opens
with two (front/back) full-body annotated anatomical drawings Shows
specific exercises with instructions and annotated anatomical
drawings and corresponding photographs Labels all muscles used with
bold text to indicate target muscles Provides helpful notes
throughout to amplify the how-to instructions: Best For (the
muscles getting the maximum effect), Targets (muscles worked),
Benefits (effect of the exercise).
"Anatomy of Strength and Conditioning" offers 29 Strength
Exercises and 28 Conditioning Exercises, plus a full set of Warm-Up
Exercises. There are six specialized Workouts to choose from:
Beginner's, Sports, Mixed-Modalities, Range, Melting-Pot and
Kamikaze. Lifelike anatomical illustrations demonstrate each
exercise and reveal in colorful detail exactly which muscles are
engaged -- a great way to focus exercises to a specific problem
area.
No other book provides such rich detail tailored to the general
reader. Athletes of all experience levels, fitness trainers,
coaches, physiotherapists and many others will find "Anatomy of
Strength and Conditioning" instructive and extremely practical.
