Becoming a supple leopard


簡介(Book Description from Amazon):

Improve your athletic performance, extend your athletic career, treat stiffness and achy joints, and prevent and rehabilitate injuries—all without having to seek out a coach, doctor, chiropractor, physical therapist, or masseur. In Becoming a Supple Leopard, Dr. Kelly Starrett—founder of MobilityWOD.com—shares his revolutionary approach to mobility and maintenance of the human body and teaches you how to hack your own movement, allowing you to live a healthier, more fulfilling life. This new edition of the New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller has been thoroughly revised to make it even easier to put to use.
Customer Reviews from Amazon :
My husband took a mobility class and does CrossFit and this book was suggested to him. HE LOVES this book. It has not been put away on the shelf, so that says something. He believes that when he is 80 years old (a mere 50 now) he will be the most mobile person around. Good, he can carry my non mobile self around. But I do have to say the book looks very nice, like a school textbook kind of, lots of color pictures and descriptions. Get it for the workout junkie in your family. I just looked through the Burpee section of it, and it has lots of photos to show you the correct way to do one. It gives lots of instruction in the proper way to work out and do many exercises, and explains why. It is making me almost want to work out. We shall see. Plus if you have tightness and soreness, and just want to be more limber, this will show you how.

You need to read this book if you care about your body
TI amiss pretty new to crossfit and this book has helped me tremendously with both mobility and the way my body needs to move through the lifts we do. Thank you Dr. STARRETT for helping us and taking the time to put together such an awesome book! The pain and strain made me wonder about crossfit and if it was right for me. I know how to work through so much now and how to prevent future injury!

Customer Reviews from Amazon :
This is definitely one of the better books out there for studying for the NBCOT exam. It helped me out a lot in passing it the second time around. Doing all 800 questions in this book helped to learn how to answer these questions and really look for exactly what they are asking for. I would say the questions in this book are pretty similar to the questions on the real exam.

The rationales helped me reason through the question and get better at selecting the right answer
This book really helped with my test taking strategy. The rationales helped me reason through the question and get better at selecting the right answer. I passed the the second time around from using this book after a professor recommended it to me. I highly recommend this book for the National Board Exam!
