Book Reviews of The Great Foam Roller Handbook
Book Review: This is not a book, its a "booklet"!
Summary: 2 Stars
I was horribly disappointed to receive this little booklet. Small, small pictures, soft cover, and looking and feeling exactly like a booklet. Smaller than many manuals you'd get with an item purchased.
Having gotten beyond my initial reaction, I looked thru the pages. There are about a dozen assorted usable exercises. Most are common sense stuff and there are few "aha!" moments if any. Same with the stretching section which was most of what I wanted. Everything there is easily found and downloaded in articles commonly available. Again, nothing more than basics, basics, and more basics. There was one single "new" idea in the whole book.
Had I paid $.99 I would have felt good. A booklet is valued at that. But not for its asking price.
