Call number: 613.718 LYS
With seven major different stretch categories and multitudes of tips and illustrations, SuperStretch is the best stretch book on the TSCPL shelves, a credit to Jacqueline Lysycia, who was voted the worlds top stretch/yoga instructor by Yoga Magazine in 2005. SuperStretch effectively targets every major muscle group, as well as focusing on the minor muscles, to create a well-rounded stretching routine.
Lysycia begins SuperStretch by laying out the benefits and vital importance of stretching. Stress tension is relieved. Posture is improved (making you look youngerand thinner!). Your muscles and joints are healthier. Chances of workout-related injuries are reduced. Muscle development is promoted. Circulation is improved. With these kinds of benefits, why not take a few minutes out of your day to stretch?
A brief explanation is given on what goes on inside your body when you stretch, to help you raise awareness of how important stretching isand what exactly you are targeting when you stretch. And finally, the importance of proper breathing while stretching is stressed. While it may seem simplewe all breath, after all, proper breathing facilitates deeper, more effective stretching.
The remainder of the book is dedicated to seven fantastic sets of stretches. Warm-up. Dynamic. Spine. Hips and legs. Hips, legs and spine. Upper body. A fat loss overview can help you produce a clear summarize of what you demand to focus on to carry out your fat burning purpose if you're a starter; or serve as a reminder for the ones who are at an intermediate or more enhance level of their losing weight strategy. Promptly after are seven steps that can serve as suggestions for your special weight loss system. The first thing that one must understand is that losing weight and losing fat is not the same thing. Many weight loss plans have fooled people into believing that it is the same, but most diets and weight loss programs only work by resulting in a person's body to reduce more muscle flesh and water than actual body fat, more help please visit The Fat Loss Factor. And gentle therapeutic .
You can start with the warm-up and then work your way through the dynamic stretches, or through a section in which you either feel particular tightness or will be working out. If your day is packed, start with the warm-up and then pick two or three key exercises to get you through the day. Need to wind down after a hectic day, or are feeling poorly? Turn to the gentle therapeutic stretches to calm you and help you relax.
SuperStretch is particularly impressive because it takes stretching to a new level. Regardless of whether you have never stretched before, or if you have stretched for years, it will challenge you in your routine. Keep the stretch light, or, if you are particularly limber, progress to the developmental stretch. (Being unusually limber myself, I have had an impossible time finding stretch books which are anywhere close to effective. SuperStretch is the only one I have found which can challenge me.)

- Great pictures, demonstrating different progressions of the stretches, as well as what muscles are being affected
- Focus on breathing
- Stretches for any activity and time of day
- Targets every muscle
Cons:
