Book Description
In Arthur's Shadow is a tribute to Nautilus inventor, Arthur Jones - an outline of his contributions to exercise and rehabilitative medicine. From the innovative equipment and strength-training principles he introduced as founder of Nautilus Sports Medical Industries to the physiological discoveries of specific muscle testing as chairman of MedX Corporation, the book delves into the theory behind the development of Nautilus machines, features Jones' greatest legacy - the MedX Lumbar Extension machine - and reveals the logic and brilliance behind his search for the truth. Not a 'how to' book, the format is a series of anecdotes - daily musings - that unveils the character and integrity of one of the few, if not the only genius in the field of exercise. At the same time, it highlights the author's experience with those viewpoints. Arthur Jones was eccentric, opinionated and "outraged" by the ignorance, myth and fraud that engulfed his fields of choice. A master communicator, he hit audiences like a sledgehammer. Few escaped unscathed.
