Review of The Stretching Handbook

The Stretching Handbook is a 144 page soft cover book that's entirely dedicated to the subject of stretching and flexibility. It covers every possible stretching exercise for every major muscle group in the body.

The Stretching Handbook (TSH) was written by Brad Walker, a prominent Australian sports trainer with nearly 20 years of experience in the health and fitness industry. He's also the founder of The Stretching Institute, which helps people improve their health, fitness and sporting performance through improved flexibility. Brad decided to write TSH several years ago when he saw the need for a comprehensive, easy to use guide to stretching and flexibility. The current version of TSH is the third edition of the book.

TSH is written in an easy to use, quick reference format, which means you don't have to read it from cover to cover to take advantage of the information it contains. TSH covers the benefits of stretching, the different types of stretching, the rules for safe stretching, and how to stretch properly. It contains 135 unique stretches, along with detailed instructions for how each stretch should be performed. It also contains plenty of clear, high quality, professional photographs (not diagrams, cartoons or illustrations) of real people performing the stretches. TSH will show you how to quickly and easily create the best stretching routines for improving your flexibility and alleviating tight, sore muscles and stiff joints.

One thing that TSH does that really sets it apart from other stretching guides is that it divides the stretches in the book into three levels according to your range of flexibility: general, intermediate or advanced. This is a very logical and useful way to organize the stretches.

TSH is easy to read, understand and follow. It's gained a reputation as one of the most user friendly publications on stretching, flexibility and sports injury prevention on the market. It's also been endorsed by some of the biggest names in the health and fitness industry, such as Runner's World, Good Medicine and Swimming and Fitness.

The bottom line?

The Stretching Handbook is an easy to use quick reference guide that will show you how to use proper stretching techniques to improve your flexibility and alleviate tight, sore muscles and stiff joints. It will give you the expertise and motivation you need to make stretching a regular part of your workout routine.
