Fascia in motion

Publisher's description

Fascia – where do they come from, what do we need them for, and what is inside them? In Faszien in Bewegung, Gunda Slomka, with the support of Dr. Robert Schleip and Prof. Jürgen Freiwald, describes the significance and benefits of muscular connective tissue for training and everyday life.

New research shows that the fascia network in the body fulfills diverse tasks: fascia plays a role in muscular force transmission, body perception, and many types of soft tissue pain. From the perspective of sports medicine, fascia is already closely linked to the terms mobility, explosive strength, and energy efficiency. Faszien in Bewegung is aimed at athletes from fitness, health, and competitive sports.

First, the reader receives the necessary basic knowledge for the subsequent training practice. The significance, origin, anatomy, and physiology of the fascia are explained. Using numerous illustrated exercises and detailed explanations, the author then presents her movement concept. In addition to training tips, she gives general recommendations and discusses, among other things, gender-specific differences as well as the influence of age on fascia training.
