Up until now, my favorite training book was 'The Encyclopedia of Bodybuilding' by Arnold Schwarzenegger. The book was loaded with meticulous details, and who better to explain them than Arnold?
Now here comes Mr. Manocchia with 'Anatomy of Exercise'.
Pat explains in full detail which exercise/movement impacts which muscle, and includes a picture of exactly which muscle(s) are involved. You really can't get a better book than this. It includes EVERYTHING you'll need to tailor your workouts, and you'll be extremely well informed. | | | | Extremely Insightful and Helpful Aug 1, 2008 |
I am just a regular person who likes to work out, and I found this book to be very clearly written and understandable as well as being insightful and helpful to me as I go about my exercise routine which includes aerobic, stretch, stability and weight exercises.
I am learning how particular excercises can benefit different areas of my body and muscles and also understanding and seeing how the positions and movement impact my muscles. It has already been helpful in curing some muscle pain I've had. Excellent book for the lay person! | | | | Getting to know my muscles Jun 13, 2008 |
| This is a great book for people from beginner to advanced in working out! It will show which prime muscles are being used as well as the synergyst muscles. It also demonstrates ways to make the move harder or easier depending on what level you are at and so that you do not injure yourself. The pictures are great and very helpful. This is a very good book! | | |  | not what I expected Jun 5, 2008 |
The text and diagrams appear to be aimed at trainers. I was looking for something geared to a begining 'exerciser' that used layman's terminology.
This did not meet that criteria. | | | Write your own review about Anatomy of Exercise: A Trainer's Inside Guide to Your Workout
