Book Reviews of The Whartons' Stretch Book

Book Review: A fantastic program that will improve your health for life
Summary: 5 Stars

This principles of active isolated stretching, outlined in this book, have greatly improved the quality of my life. I was in miserable condition with many back, hip, and leg problems that developed through years of overtraining in bodybuilding and triathlon competition. I tried sports medicine, chiropractic, physical therapy -- with only minimal relief from constant pain and stiffness. By applying the Wharton's principles of active isolated stretching, I can now run again and participate in grueling martial arts training -- all without injury. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to improve their sports performance or wants to rehabilitate their injuries so they can "get out on the road again!"
