"This book explains how to modify and cue exercises based on an athlete's different joint angles, bone lengths, and overall structure. The authors explain the ways unique bodies manage various exercises, citing evidence from multiple sources, and how to best take advantage of a given set of levers in order to optimize those movements"-- Provided by publisher.
