Stretching Anatomy by Arnold G Nelson and Jouko Kokkonen pairs full-color anatomical drawings with step-by-step stretching instructions, making it a go-to fitness reference for students, trainers, and weekend athletes alike. The 2006 Human Kinetics paperback lays out exactly which muscles are targeted in every stretch so readers can improve flexibility safely and effectively.
Each of the 160 pages is richly illustrated, turning the body into a visual textbook that shows how joints and muscles move during classic and sport-specific stretches. The clear, jargon-free cues help young adults and seasoned exercisers feel confident about form and breathing without needing specialized equipment.
This copy arrives from a smoke-free home with no writing, dog-ears, or other distractions—just crisp pages ready for daily use beside the yoga mat, in the gym bag, or on the classroom desk. At 254 mm tall it slips neatly into most backpacks yet stays open flat for quick consultation between sets.
Whether you need a science-backed flexibility guide, a companion for personal-training coursework, or a thoughtful gift for the movement enthusiast in your life, Stretching Anatomy delivers lasting value without the sticker shock of a new textbook.
