Average rating of 5/5 THE ANATOMY OF EXERCISE & MOVEMENT BY JO ANN STAUGAARD-JONES, 2010-05-17
I am a Classical Pilates mat person, and am always seeking to better understand the biomechanics of each exercise of the Pilates Method. This new book by Professor Jo Ann Staugaard-Jones is a very useful reference guide, as it shows many illustrations of Pilates mat exercises, and gives an easy to read and understand description for anyone who does not come from a background of Anatomy. Superb value.

Average rating of 5/5 The concise book of trigger points, 2009-06-11
Having received Trigger point therapy and found it extremely useful. As a massage Therapist myself I wanted to learn more. I was not disappointed. What a great visual and informative book. It did not baffle me with too much anatomical information but told me just enough. Anyone without my training could pick up this book and learn a lot from it.

Average rating of 5/5 BEST BOOK ON CORE STABILITY, 2009-07-30
This is the best and most practical book I have come across on core stability. The starts with a clear explanation of the subject of core/functional stabilty and what this means. It then progresses from a comprehensive functional assessment to dynamic movement.

The photos of the models performing examples of the exercises are also, to my eyes, technically very good. It shows common faults with performing the exercises, again the pictures are clear and easy to comprehend.

It includes lots of really good teaching tips for the exercises and case study examples from Joanne's work in elite sport. The exercises are influenced/drawn from a wide variety of sources including Feldenkrais and Yoga and sports coaching drills.

Throughout the book there is a real emphasis on performing the exercises with good form and technique thereby developing the correct neuro-muscular patterns that you need for efficient and fluid movement. There is also helpful advice on avoiding the common problems such as fixing and ridgidity when peforming "core stability" exercises. The other really good thing is there is a clear and well evidenced programme of how you can progress. Something that is often missing in other "how to" exercise books.

This book should be a core text book on physiotherapy/sports science degree courses and should also be standard issue to all physical education teachers.

Average rating of 5/5 Exceptionally clear, 2006-07-05
This book is exceptionally clear in both text and illustration. It is not cluttered by unnecessary information, yet contains everything you need to know in practice. I also have the Concise Book of Muscles by the same author, so together they make ideal partners. The additional chapter by Tom Myers at the end, on the extensive interconnection of muscles throughout the body, is also an interesting observation and therefore food for thought.

Average rating of 5/5 Massage therapy student, new to muscles - excellent book., 2010-06-21
I bought this to help with my training in Swedish Massage therapy. It's clearly laid out, colour coded by body section, with muscles dealt with in a logical order. Points of origin and insertion etc are also colour coded and the text is clear & concise. No doubt there is more detail to be learned elsewhere, but it's an excellent book for beginners. Recommended.
