Book Reviews of Complete Book of Throws
Book Review: A Good Read
Summary: 4 Stars
I myself am a novice thrower who purchased this book in order to gain a better understanding of the javelin throw in particular and I am pleased to say that I wasn't let down. The book does a great job of offering some specific workout plans and training drills that can help increase your power output and thus enable you to throw farther.
The only reason I gave this book a four star rating was because of the technique instructions that were explained only in print with few pictures.
Overall a very good book however and I would recommend this to anyone who wants to get in better shape for the throwing events or to a coach who wants to better condition their athletes.
