Edition DescriptionRevised edition
SynopsisThe new standard in fitness books, featuring hundreds of at-home stretches and exercises. At last, the first complete, fully illustrated compendium of stretching and exercises for every part of the body, backed by the experience and medical and scientific authority of the American Physical Therapy Association. Each exercise in the book has been prepared and reviewed by a special editorial board, chaired by Dr. Marilyn Moffat, president emeritus of the APTA, and widely considered to be the preeminent expert in the field. Broken down into three major sections, The American Physical Therapy Association Book of Body Repair and Maintenance first offers illustrated descriptions of the structure and mechanics of each major body part, explaining what can go wrong and how to properly care for that area. A middle section provides general information on posture, body mechanics, weight control, aerobic conditioning, and maintenance programs. Each chapter references the main part of the book, the catalog of exercises., The American Physical Therapy Association Book of Body Maintenance and Repair explores the mechanical workings of every moving part of the body, explains what can go wrong, and then provides a complete program for ensuring the greatest long-term health for that area and tells you how to respond when injuries occur. Whether your concern is a sore back, an injured knee, or general strength and flexibility, no other book can lead the way to total body health as effectively or authoritatively as The American Physical Therapy Association Book of Body Maintenance and Repair.
