From the Publisher:

The Anatomy of Stretching is the first book to look in-depth at the anatomy of the body when stretching, and will prove an invaluable resource for gym users, personal trainers, athletes, sports therapists, and coaches.

The book examines physiology and flexibility; the benefits of stretching; the different types of stretching; rules for safe stretching; and how to stretch properly. Over 300 unique full-colour illustrations reveal the primary and secondary muscles worked in 115 key stretches, and relevant information relating to each stretch.
