5.0 out of 5 stars Fitness expert offers tips for increasing flexibility, mobility, and strength, Nov 9 2010
By Susanna Hutcheson "Copywriting for the Discri... - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Full-Body Flexibility - 2nd Edition (Paperback)
Flexibility is often an overlooked part of getting and staying fit. We spend time doing resistance exercises and cardio and from time to time a few stretches. But flexibility is something only fans of yoga and similar activities take seriously. Yet it's very important to be flexible. For one thing, it's easy to get injured if we lack flexibility.

In this new book by fitness expert Jay Blahnik, you'll learn the three-step method for flexibility, mobility, and strength. It's full of colorful instructions that will make your workouts easy and fun. In many cases you'll see two views so you really understand the exercise or stretch. I did some of these and they're fun and feel really great.

Here's what you'll find in the book . . .

Part I Total-Body Stretch System

Chapter 1: Stretching Basics
Chapter 2: Three-Step Stretch System

Part II Regions of Flexibility

Chapter 3: Neck, Shoulders, Arms, and Hands
Chapter 4: Chest, Back, and Abdominals
Chapter 5: Glutes and Hips
Chapter 6: Quadriceps and Hamstrings
Chapter 7: Calves, Shins, and Feet
Chapter 8: Multiregion Stretches
Chapter 9: Sport Mobility Stretches

Part III Fitness and Sport Routines

Chapter 10: General Stretch Routines
Chapter 11: Sport Stretch Routines
Chapter 12: Specialty Stretch Routines

If you want to improve your workouts and add flexibility training, you'll want to add this book to your collection. It's a real gem.

Highly recommended.

WE ALL NEED THIS BOOK.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous, May 3 2011
By Paul Mckimmy - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Full-Body Flexibility - 2nd Edition (Paperback)
This book is perfect for stretching or a stretching/yoga workout. There is a detailed chart showing which stretches are for which muscles. More importantly there is a very well photographed, easy to follow direction for each stretch: one per page. In the back, you can choose from several stretching workout routines based on your goals (ie yoga-inspired, sports, etc.) and how much time you can commit (10-20 min. vs. 40+ minutes)... which is brilliant. I normally have 10-15 min. in the morning, and do the "Express" yoga routine, my back feels noticeably better all day and especially when I get up in the morning. I highly recommend this book - especially if you've always thought of trying yoga and don't care for the metaphysical BS that usually accompanies that.
