Stretchfit: Safe, Effective Mat Stretches for Every Body

Description

Well known presenter, teacher and top selling Pilates author Anthony Lett has cherry picked stretches from the disciplines of physical therapy, Osteopathy, Yoga, Pilates, martial arts and dance and trialled them over a 20-year period in his studio. Anthony has culled the fluff and leaves you with the safest and most effective material that works. 'No fillers, all thrillers' is the result! As well as presenting in 25 countries to health professionals on the subject of stretching, Anthony has worked with some of the world's best Karate champions, in Moscow with dancers from the Russian Bolshoi ballet, on thousands of wounded weekend warriors and even sheep shearers from outback Western Australia. All have benefitted from a body of work that is person oriented, not pose oriented. It's truly a work for "every body." He explains simply and with clarity how to use a "PNF" technique which fastbacks your flexibility gains and provides loads of stunning full color 3D anatomy images to assist you to understand the practice. The work has a focus on single joints and smaller groups of muscles so that there's no guessing about doing it right or feeling it in the right place. It's not stretching for dummies, but it's stretching that's hard to get wrong. There are simple and logical cues and images and a host of solo and partner stretches for each muscle group to explore, because although one stretch may be effective for one person, for various reasons like individual bone shape, it might not work for someone else. This realistic and pragmatic approach, honed by many years of experimentation on real bodies, ensures that in this book at least, you will find a collection of stretches just right for you!
