The Ultimate Guide to Weight Training for Skating (The Ultimate Guide to Weight Training for Sports, 22)
I am a skating coach in Britain and I have read and referred to your excellent book 'Weight training for skating' in my training for years. The skating specific programs I've used for my teams have helped us improve dramatically. --Diana EI am a recreational skater and have been taking group and private lessons for about 10 years. The Ultimate Guide to Weight Training for Skating has helped me to organize weight training workouts and to understand which exercises developed which muscles. Although skating seems to involve mostly the legs, maintaining good posture, specific arm position, and torso rotation are just as important. So ensuring that I develop all muscles is a tremendous help. And the breakdown of strength and power helps me understand the value of different exercises. Thanks. --Jean PI am a recreational skater and have been taking group and private lessons for about 10 years.
