5.0 out of 5 stars A book that has stood the test of time., Jan 16 2008
By Susan I. - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Muscles: Testing and Function, with Posture and Pain :Includes a Bonus Primal Anatomy CD-ROM (Hardcover)
Now in its 5th edition, this book has become "thee" muscle testing book to have. Who's it for? Anyone who has a need to be able to MANUAL muscle test any of the body's muscles. This would include such professionals as doctors, nurses, physical therapists, athletic trainers, personal trainers, etc.

How does the book work? Well, you look up the particular muscle you want to test, look at the picture of the test position, and then simply apply manual pressure to the limb in the instructed direction. If it sounds easy, it is the way this book shows you- included are dozens and dozens of GREAT pictures that show you precisely what to do. So, if you have a need to regularly test muscles, I highly recommend you get this book- it's a little bit more expensive than some of the other muscle testing books, but its the best I've come across so far- in fact it sits right on my desk for reference. Health professionals might also be interested in The Sixty-Second Motivator to help get clients motivated to do their home exercise programs consistently.

4.0 out of 5 stars Invaluable for your library, April 8 2006
By Scott J. Aronin "wellness professional" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Muscles: Testing and Function, with Posture and Pain :Includes a Bonus Primal Anatomy CD-ROM (Hardcover)
In the fields of fitness, physical therapy, sports, orthopedics or anatomy and biomechanical interest, this book is a classic that should prove invaluable to you. It can help professionals or laypeople discover muscular imbalances, injuries and causes of pain in their bodies or the bodies of others.

It is clearly and well presented, very well-researched and accepted in the medical field. My main profession is fitness and health trainer and this book is a tremendous contribution to my practice.
