Este libro es muy técnico pero dirigido al público en general, se entiende todo muy bien, explica de manera agradable la conformación del aparato músculo esquelético incluyendo gráficos explicativos. De manera muy amena se conocen los músculos a trabajar su ubicación y brinda orientación sobre cómo ejecutar en forma correcta algunas rutinas; es un libro muy bello con sus dibujos y su lenguaje muy asequible. Lo recomiendo altamente.
A bit pricey for what it offers but as a quick guide (for those who would rather exercise muscle groups rather than tear muscles)it does the trick.
I was never very good at science/anatomy and don’t understand too much about the inner workings of the body but I LOVE to work out so this book is perfect for when I just need to know which specific muscles I’m working when I do specific exercises. I highly recommend it!
Take a look inside your muscles and find out what makes them work. Then you’ll really be able to see results in your workouts.
This is an Excellent Reference and Training material that helps you see All the multiple muscle type effects of each individual workout you use and which ones you may want to use or avoid depending on your circumstances ! This book,IMHO,is Not difficult to understand and has a Lot of Bang for the Buck compared to other mediums that I explored here at Amazon. If it looks good after you check it out a little,I’d go for it
