For anyone who plays sports and is looking to facilitate recovery or prevent injuries
Everyone who plays sports experiences injuries. Many people never fully recover, because they're not aware of what they can do to facilitate recovery. But there's no need to simply resign yourself to living with a sports injury. In The Anatomy of Sports Injuries, author Brad Walker brings years of expertise working with elite-level and world-champion athletes and lecturing on injury prevention to this how-to guide. The book takes a fundamental approach, bringing you inside the body to show exactly what is happening when a sports injury occurs. This second edition features 350 images, including updated illustrations and more anatomical information. It is for every sports player or fitness enthusiast who has been injured and would like to know what the injury involves, how to rehabilitate the area, and how to prevent complications or injury in the future.
