Description
Build muscle effectively, sculpt your figure and prevent injuries
Anyone who does strength training wants to strengthen their muscles, build muscle mass, perhaps combat pain or simply achieve a better physique. Germany’s best-known fascia researcher, Robert Schleip, and the physiotherapist and former professional footballer Berengar Buschmann demonstrate that fascia plays a key role in achieving all these goals through machine-based training. Their new strength and machine-based training programme specifically targets the connective tissue as well as the muscles. It prevents injuries, gives movements elastic tension, improves coordination and ensures defined, toned contours.
Schleip and Buschmann are breaking new ground in this field. Until now, there has been no exercise system for strength training on machines that focuses specifically on the fascia.
The authors have drawn on their practical experience to develop a new programme: with Panther Training, you can achieve not only muscular strength but also elegance, suppleness and balance in the gym. The book offers tests to identify your own connective tissue type, illustrated exercises on standard equipment with variations to suit different needs, detailed plans for three training levels, tips on addressing weak points, and an easy-to-understand introduction to the basics of fascial strength training.
