PHOENIX, Arizona, November 16. JUST in time for holiday shopping comes the new book Swimming Anatomy, and a great deal: Pre-order the book at $5 off and receive a free pair of FINIS Shockwave goggles when you order before Nov. 22.
Swimming Anatomy, written by Ian McLeod, features 74 of the most effective swimming exercises, each with step-by-step descriptions and full-color anatomical illustrations highlighting the primary muscles in action.
Swimming Anatomy goes beyond exercises by placing you on the starting block, in the water, and into the throes of competition. Illustrations of the active muscles for starts, turns, and the four competitive strokes (freestyle, breaststroke, butterfly, and backstroke) show you how each exercise is fundamentally linked to swimming performance.
You'll also learn how exercises can be modified to target specific areas, improve your form in the water, and minimize common swimming injuries. Best of all, you'll learn how to put it all together to develop a training program based on your individual needs and goals.
This is a book geared for all swimmers, from beginner to elite to Master. Coaches will love the illustrated diagrams, giving you a better idea of how each exercise you give your swimmers will help them in the pool.
