Book Reviews of The Great Body Ball Handbook
Book Review: Clear, concise, instructive, innovative, & for all levels
Summary: 5 Stars
I've flipped through lots of stability ball books and this one - as skinny as it is - has been hands down the best. I coordinate the fitness program at a university and train students to be fitness professionals, and I pass along this book to them as much as I can. I also teach some of the exercises in my classes. The exercises listed are effective and innovative, and grounded in proper body mechanics. More importantly, the book gives options to increase or decrease the level of difficulty (not only does everyone begin exercise at different levels but as people progress they'll need harder options). And, it covers just about every muscle group. While it's not an exhaustive list of stability ball exercises, I was quite surprised that this little book would have so much more than the others! It's definitely been a worthwhile investment for our program.
Summary of The Great Body Ball Handbook
This comprehensive little book covers a series of ball exercises and stretches to work the whole body, including abdominals. Each exercise has a start and finish photo, with easy to follow step-by-step instructions. The Great Body Ball Handbook also discusses proper ball inflation, the proper form and posture when performing the exercises, as well as pointers on stretching, aerobic training, and safety.Exercise & Fitness Books
