English
By (author): Chad Waterbury
Written by Dr. Chad Waterbury, a physical therapist who understands how bodies change with age, Elite Physique shows you how to make radical physical changes by manipulating sets, reps, and frequency and by deciding when and how to use advanced training methods. Youll start by performing an honest physical assessment to establish a starting point and more accurately gauge your progress.
As you move into exercises for the lower body and upper body, you'll find tips on altering exercises to alleviate stress on primary joints like the shoulders, elbows, wrists, lower back, hips, and knees. Video clips offer demonstrations of many of the exercises, highlighting proper technique and common mistakes. Youll learn the finer points of sculpting the midsection and will be able to create programs to target a lagging body part, either as an add-on to full-body training or as a stand-alone high-frequency training plan.
Waterbury also includes advice on how to make staple lifts such as squats, deadlifts, and presses more joint friendly for older, more physically battered lifters. He breaks down how training must change as you agewith a program for a 20-year-old looking different than one for a 50-year-oldto safely pursue your goal of a lean, muscular physique.
Designed for men looking for the most effective approach to ignite their physique transformation, Elite Physique is a go-to resource.
