Full Strength (English)

Chronic back pain is a serious problem but many patients suffer from treatable conditions believing there to be no solution. It has been shown that three in four patients with chronic back problems make good to very good progress with targeted strength training, regardless of age or sex or diagnosis: this holds good not just for the back, but also for the whole body.

"Full Strength": A Training Handbook for a strong Back and a healthy Body” examines the following topics:

• The benefits of strength training
• Strength training and sport
• Strength training as cardiovascular training
• Strength training for your figure
• Strength training training as therapy
• Training principles

Werner Kieser describes 40 exercises in detail, using anatomical illustrations to explain the workings of each and also discusses many of the misconceptions surrounding strength training.

"Full Strength" is the English translation of the German Edition of "Ein starker Körper kennt keinen Schmerz".
