Elite athletes have long relied on personalised stretching programmes to improve flexibility and prevent injuries. What many of us don’t know is that many of these targeted stretches can have a much broader application. In Prescriptive Stretching, 2nd Edition, Kristian Berg shares his expertise on stretching and athletic training with over 40 different stretches. The visually stunning colour anatomical illustrations demonstrate exactly how each stretch targets a specific muscle. These stretches are designed to eliminate pain, alleviate muscle soreness, improve balance and flexibility and prevent common injuries. The text also features a detailed discussion of PNF stretching, as well as sample stretching programmes designed to improve flexibility and assist with injury prevention for various parts of the body. The essential text shows you how to quickly assess pain and identify the stretches to reduce discomfort. Specifically you’ll find recommendations for common ailments such as headache, back pain, neck stiffness, shoulder soreness, golfer’s elbow, tennis elbow and runner’s knee. Whether you’re looking to increase range of motion or simply eliminate muscle pain, Prescriptive Stretching, 2nd Edition has you covered.

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
