Excellently formatted- just the right amount of information for a basic overview of major muscle groups without getting lost or overwhelmed.

This is a neat little reference book with straight-forward information on the muscles and what you can do to help alleviate certain problems. I've referred back to it a few times already since purchasing it. If you want a fast, easy, go-to book for information, this is a good one to have. Most instruction featured in it is in regards to self-massage and specific spots on the body/muscles to focus on. It also outlines what to look for if your muscles are not functioning properly. This is the main reason I purchased this book. And I'm glad I did.

Still one of the best out there for intelligent, healthy body use and restoration. Clear, concise, well-formatted.
