This book, now in its second edition, claims to be “the Ultimate Guide to resolving pain, preventing injury, and optimizing athletic performance” – and it delivers.
Unlike others of its type, this book is truly comprehensive. Covering everything from basic movement, self-evaluation, and proper bracing to tests, movement faults for exercises, and mobilization methods, the book is a go-to for improving flexibility. It’s not just about flexibility though – much of this is about simply identifying when you are moving poorly and fixing those movements so that you don’t accumulate issues.
In short, get this book if you want to:
- Move better
- Sit/stand better
- Lift more
- Achieve proper positions
- Resolve tightness issues
- Identify issues in common exercises
