Description: See inside every
stretch—and maximize flexibility! Stretching Anatomy will arm you with the
knowledge to increase range of motion, supplement training, enhance recovery,
and maximize efficiency of movement. You'll also gain a detailed understanding
of how each stretch affects your body.
Stretching
Anatomy is like having an X-ray of each stretch, only better. Not only do you
see full-color illustrations of the muscles in action, but you also find out
how changes in position can alter the muscle emphasis and difficulty and how
variations can improve safety and effectiveness.
Each exercise
includes detailed instruction on how to stretch, when to stretch, primary and
secondary muscle emphasis, and which muscles are activated for support.
Stretching programs provide three levels of difficulty, including light
stretching that can be used as a warm-up or to aid in recovery from soreness or
injury. And summary movement tables show how to customize stretching programs
to focus on key problem areas.
Whether it is
increased flexibility or reduced muscle soreness or tension, Stretching Anatomy
allows you to see and feel the benefit of proper stretching technique.
