Pages : 206
Book Description
Say Goodbye to Muscle Dysfunction once and for all with Muscle Activation Techniques. This revolutionary approach will give your body the tools to recover, run faster, perform harder, and crush the competition. Greg Roskopf coupled stellar observation skills with his knowledge and expertise in exercise science to develop a paradigm shift. Suffering chronic pain for years from a falling accident when he was nineteen, Greg fervently sought solutions not only for himself but also for his clients. Greg's research led to an epiphany: Muscle tightness wasn't the only cause of limited range of motion, Muscle weakness also played a role ? and a BIG ONE. The muscle tightness was merely a symptom of the root problem; muscle weakness.Using Muscle Activation Techniques to "activate" and strengthen muscles can result in reduced pain, few injuries, and better overall performance levels. This is the shift Greg hopes to inspire: techniques focused on treating the weak muscles over the tight ones. This Jumpstart into MAT program will teach you:1) The correlation between muscle weakness and muscle tightness.2) Basic principles and introductory-level skills for understanding the MAT process.3) How to implement the MAT process into daily work with clients.4) Tools to identify and correct muscular imbalances. In Jumpstart into MAT, Greg Roskopf hopes practitioners will adopt the paradigm shift and learn new skills to allow them to better serve their athletes and clients. He lays the foundational tools to help Physical and Rehabilitative Health professionals treat the problem rather than the symptom. By doing so, they have a better chance of minimizing repeated muscle tightening, recurring pain, and further injury.

Pages : 136
Book Description
"He does wonderful work. A strip needs good characters--and that's what Jump Start has."--Charles Schulz, creator of Peanuts Joe and Marcy Cobb are the quintessential young married couple complete with a baby, two busy careers, and eccentric parents. An eminently likable pair, Joe and Marcy juggle their relationship, their jobs--he's a police officer, she's a nurse--and raising their daughter, Sunny. Robb Armstrong's characters are so popular that many readers of Jump Start tell him that they identify with the Cobbs. In fact, Jump Start features issues familiar to readers of all colors. From buying a home to volunteer work to handling the demands of parents and baby, Joe and Marcy manage life's challenges with aplomb. "Don't say that word, Sunny!" Joe intones, correcting their daughter's newly discovered use of foul language. "Bad, bad, bad, bad," corrects Marcy in agreement. In the next frame, however, Sunny's trash-talking up a storm in church. "Next time we won't react so strongly," Joe says, embarrassed. "It's too late for next time," says Marcy, cringing in the pew. Still, Armstrong approaches many African-American-specific issues and does so in a decidedly humorous way, and he bases the strip on his own life. While discussing a movie they've heard everyone likes, Marcy tells Joe, "It's a shoo-in to get overlooked for an Oscar!" To which Joe responds, "That good, huh?" Robb Armstrong offers a unique perspective that strikes a chord with audiences hungry for a positive, authentic portrayal of middle-class African-Americans. Jump Start's humor crosses all lines because it's just that: appealing, realistic, and downright funny!
