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, an internationally recognized stretching and sports injury consultant with over 20 years of practical experience in the health and fitness industry.

Brad is also the founder of The Stretching Institute, an organization dedicated to helping 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. Brad has continued to update TSH over the years, and a 2011 edition is now available.

TSH is written in a quick reference format, which means you don't have to read it from beginning to end to take advantage of the information it contains. It covers the benefits of stretching, the different types of stretching, the rules for safe stretching, and how to stretch properly.

TSH contains 135 unique stretches, along with detailed instructions for how each stretch should be performed. It also contains plenty of clear, high quality photographs (not diagrams, illustrations or cartoons) of real people performing the stretches.

The stretches in TSH are organized by major muscle group, and there are plenty of stretches for each major muscle group to choose from. For instance, there are over 22 stretches just for the back, and over 15 stretches just for the shoulders.

TSH has gained a reputation as one of the most user friendly publications on stretching, flexibility and sports injury prevention on the market. It's 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.

In summary, 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.
