Book Description
Introducing Active-Isolated Stretching, the revolutionary yet remarkably simple flexibility program—featuring 59 stretches for over 55 different sports and everyday activities! Whether you’re a serious competitor or weekend warrior, you know that proper stretching before and after your workout can improve your performance, increase your flexibility, help prevent injury, and make you feel better. But did you know that the traditional way of stretching—lock your knees, bounce, hold, hurt, hold longer—actually makes muscles tighter and more prone to injury? There’s a new and better way to stretch: Active-Isolated Stretching. And with The Whartons’ Stretch Book, the method used successfully by scores of professional, amateur, and Olympic athletes is now available to everyone. This groundbreaking technique, developed by researchers, coaches, and trainers, and pioneered by Jim and Phil Wharton, is your new exercise prescription. The routine is simple: First, you prepare to stretch one isolated muscle at a time. Then you actively contract the muscle opposite the isolated muscle, which will then relax in preparation for its stretch. You stretch it gently and quickly—for no more than two seconds—and release it before it goes into its protective contraction. Then you repeat. Simple, but the results are outstanding. The Whartons’ Stretch Book explains it all. Part I contains the Active-Isolated Stretch Catalog, with fully illustrated, easy-to-follow stretches for each of five body zones, from neck and shoulders to trunk, arms, and legs—over fifty stretches in all. Part II offers specific stretching prescriptions for over fifty-five sports and activities, from running, tennis, track, and aerobics to skiing, skating, and swimming. You’ll also find advice on stretching for daily activities such as driving, working at a desk, lifting, and keyboarding. Part III discusses stretching for life, with specific recommendations for expectant mothers and older athletes. It also includes specific stretching exercises that could help you avoid unnecessary surgery. Give Active-Isolated Stretching a try for three weeks. You’ll never go back to your old stretching routines again.

Book Description
Have you ever wondered why you get the aches and pains you do often without an obvious cause? Have you ever stopped to consider if the thing you're doing to try and alleviate the pain could in fact be making it worse? This book will cover the most common issues that we face in modern life and will highlight the author's best tried and tested clinical methods to overcome these challenges. There are four guiding principles to the If It Hurts DON'T Stretch It concept that explain how best to understand and manage the most common aches and pains: - Pain is just the symptom - If it hurts, don't stretch it - If something is overstretched, then something else is too short - Stretching feels nice but make sure you're stretching the muscle that needs it The book is broken down into chapters covering specific areas of the body (Neck and Upper Back, Shoulders, Elbows, Forearms and Wrists, Hips and Lower Back, Knees and finally Ankles, Heels and Feet). Each chapter covers the most common challenges faced in each of these areas, how these challenges relate to the concept and advice on the correct stretches and strengthening to do. All too often there is significant misinformation around managing and improving discomfort by incorrectly advising individuals to simply stretch the area that hurts. Each chapter therefore contains an essential 'what not to do' section. Understanding why you have pain and knowing that there is something you can do about it is liberating. Acknowledging and understanding why following the common advice hasn't worked for you before is an essential part of reframing how you treat your pain. Through the guiding principles you can take back control of your body by alleviating your pain and understanding what the pain itself is trying to highlight. There is also the opportunity to follow the practical advice in the 'what to do' section and try out the handy tips of each chapter. In doing so you'll soon be reaping the rewards of a pain free life.

Book Description
"There is no group more mythical than Faust" Julian Cope "When the Germans do something, they don't fuck around" Jean-Hervé Péron From the publisher: September 2006 sees the release of this book about Faust, the legendary krautrock group. Fully illustrated, it contains reviews all of the group's records from the period 1970-75 as well as recounting the rise of krautrock and its relation to the social upheavals of the '60s. There is also a discography, bibliographies, live reviews and the text of the group's 1973 manifesto as well as essays on music and time and the group's relation to the work of Frank Zappa. From the dustjacket: In 1970 Polydor Records funded an unusual experiment. They gave some unknown German musicians a retreat in the countryside near Hamburg, equipped it with a studio and their best engineer, then left them free to do as they liked. This is the story of Faust and the music they made between 1970 and 1975, music which continues to inspire and confound listeners to this day. About the author: Andy Wilson has been running the Faust web site, the Faust-Pages (http: //www.faust-pages.com) for over a decade now, during which time he has collected information about the band, interviewed band members and generally researched the group's history. Now he has collected that information into a book. He lives in Hackney, London, and has been listening to Faust for the best part of a lifetime.
