Straighter, Stronger, Leaner, Longer: A Head-to-Toe Strengthening, Stretching, and Pain-Relieving Program Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Having had several joint related injuries from years of weightlifting and triathlon training, I've built a small library on endurance sports, sports medicine and physical therapy. Some books have been helpful for remedying some aspects of an overuse injury, but never has one put it all together into a whole body approach. Renee Daniels is a medical exercise specialist whose approach and method are simple and effective.
After religiously adhering to her 30-minute workouts for two months, my whole body feels more aligned and so much better. I truly feel straighter, stronger, leaner and longer. My annoying knee-cap pain, lower back tightness/weakness and impinged left shoulder have improved tremendously. I feel like my whole body has shifted to work more optimally.
Renee covers each major joint (ankle, knee, hip, back, shoulder, elbows, wrist and neck) in just enough detail for anyone to understand, includes some real-life examples of how she has helped past clients and provides specific exercise routines for each. Towards the end of the book, Renee sums up her approach with two, 30-minute workouts that strengthen and align the entire body for overall health and fitness.
A fantastic book!

Functional Fitness: Look Younger, Stay Active Longer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Board-certified emergency physician Paul D'Arezzo presents Functional Fitness: Look Younger Stay Active Longer, a guide to delaying the effects of age not through expensive (and potentially dangerous!) surgery, but rather through healthier living and habits. Chapters cover everything from proper posture and nutrition to staying flexible, preventing back pain, personalizing an exercise program one can stick to, avoiding or coping with arthritis, the mental dimension of energy, and much more. Illustrated with black-and-white cartoons and diagrams throughout, Functional Fitness gives practical tips in no-nonsense terms. Though particularly valuable for aging baby boomers, Functional Fitness is a superb self-care guide for all ages. Also highly recommended is D'Arezzo's previous book "Posture Alignment".

Balance Training: Stability Workouts for Core Strength and a Sculpted Body Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For beginners outside the fitness industry. I bought this book based on previous reviews so, hope this will set the record straight... To be honest, yes, there is a lot of pictures in this book... But many of them show improper form or misalignment. Note to the author: Scapulae retraction and protraction are inverted throughout the book which shows, poor knowledge of anatomy and kinesiology. I gave it one star because I like the variety of foam roller exercises. The rest is just same old and bad. I wish I could have browsed this book before buying it. It would have saved me time and money.
