1.Strength Training Anatomy by: Frederic Delavier November 01, 2005
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £13.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £9.74 You Save: £4.25 (30%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £8.89
This book really is as good as they say. The illustrations are superb and make it a worthwhile read just to appreciate the anatomy of the human body, but more importantly of course to understand what happens to which muscles during strength training. The little sections explaining common injuries and how to avoid them are also a great benefit. Highly recommended.

2.Triathletes Training Bible by: Joe Friel November 30, 2004

My only regret is not having bought this book earlier. I've been running for a year and now I want to train for triathlon. I bought this book hoping to find some guidance, and I found much more. This book: -Focuses on every aspect of training, or as the author says "eating, living, and sleeping triathlon" -Exposes and explains rigorous yet simple training methods and plans for complete novices or experienced competitors -Gives tips on running/biking/swimming technique -Gives specific details regarding ironman triathlon (e.g. specific pre-race nutrition) -ALWAYS backs arguments up with studies and other forms of evidence -Has appendices with workout plans, workout journals, yearly workout ...

3.Sport & Remedial Massage Therapy by: Mel Cash August 01, 1996
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £14.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £9.74 You Save: £5.25 (35%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £8.00
I am a current sport therapy student at university. This is the book that we were recommended by top physiotherapist. This book is easy to read and easy to understand, it will teach you everything you will need to know and has clear and easy to flow photos of how to treat different injuries that your client might have. It is well worth the money

4.Survival of the Fittest: Anatomy of Peak Physical Performance by: Mike Stroud July 29, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £8.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £6.74 You Save: £2.25 (25%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £3.00
I read this book whilst training for an endurance event and found the tales of personal involvement in endurance events, backed up by the explaination of what is happeing to you whilst taking part in these types of events helpful and reassuring. The best bit was knowing, from reading this book, that three hours into an event and running up a mountain the other reason why you are breathing like a steam train is because your body has just started using fat as a source of energy and not just past it! A very informative, useful and well written book.

5.Enter the Kettlebell!: Strength Secret of the Soviet Supermen by: Pavel Tsatsouline March 06, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £21.50 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £13.98 You Save: £7.52 (35%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £23.73
This is a great book for learning the techniques required for the various must do lifts. The number of main exercises in the book, you could just about count on a single hand but the attention to detail is excellent, the teaching points are clear and explicit with clear pictures demonstrating how to perform and how not to perform while also giving advice as to how to strengthen weak points in your technique. As a certified Kettlebell Instructor in the UK I use this book and its compatriot for women (From Russia with tough love) as a point of reference and recommend them also to my clients if they are really committed to improving their performance/fat burning potential or whatever their goal is. The writing style is also very easy to read with some good background ... Read More:

Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £9.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £6.99 You Save: £3.00 (30%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £2.48
'The Runners Handbook' is a comprehensive book covering nearly all aspects of running. It stretches to just over 700 pages, which is a lot of information about this sport. The topics it covers are extremely varied and include, reasons to exercise, getting started and maintaining motivation, training diaries, beginner and intermediate programs, racing, equipment, nutrition, altering your running to suit different environments, fitting your training in with everyday life, women runners, aging runners, kids and disabled runners, illness and injury, cross training and supplemental training and overall wellness. Glover writes extremely well and informally, making for an interesting and engaging read. This book has plenty of tables, but no diagrams that would have added ... Read More:

7.Co-active Coaching: New Skills for Coaching People Toward Success in Work and Life by: Laura Whitworth, Henry Kimsey-House, Karen Kimsey-House, Phil Sandahl February 15, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £23.50 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £22.33 You Save: £1.17 ( 5%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £18.62
Ten years ago, coaches were essentially consultants who prescribed specific behaviors for clients struggling in the workplace. These days, coaches have much more experience and expertise; the best of them relate to their clients "co-actively," as partners rather than as authority figures. In fact, Laura Whitworth, Karen Kimsey-House, Henry Kimsey-House and Phillip Sandahl contend that such coaching can facilitate fundamental changes in many aspects of a client's life, not just at work, and they outline the skills coaches need to accomplish this. The book includes a CD that explains the basic principles of their philosophy, and an appendix with forms and exercises for coaches and clients. getAbstract recommends it to managers and human resource professionals who want to ...

Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: £12.99 Prices subject to change. Used Price: £7.49

9.Body for Life: 12 Weeks to Mental and Physical Strength by: Bill Phillips, Michael D'Orso September 02, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £16.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £10.99 You Save: £6.00 (35%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £8.35
I have just finished the 12 weeks program and I have to say it did change my life. I did not want to write a review until I finished the 12 weeks because I wanted to see for myself if this book was enough on its own to carry you through the entire 12 week program Let me try to explain the confusion with the reviews about this book because I think I understand it now. If you are a couch potato and don't do any exercise, or if you are a reasonably active person and do a lot of cardio work(running, tennis, squash, etc) yet you are not seeing any results, then this book is for you. I was actually watching my fat content go up and up even though I was doing 5k runs every morning. I never had a structured approach to weight/resistance training, and I always considered ...

10.Be Iron Fit: Time-efficient Training Secrets for Ultimate Fitness by: Don Fink 2004-05
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: £10.99 Prices subject to change. Used Price: £3.97
I've been training for triathlon for only a few months but I had so many questions that have built up during that time and this book answers nearly all of them. The best thing about it for me, as a relative newby to the sport, is that it sets things out in a straightforward manner and takes most of the guess work out of training for an Ironman or other triathlon distances. Also, there is a significant focus on making the most of the time available for someone with a full time job, family commitments etc, which is excellent. Highly recommended.
