If you want to be faster, stronger, and less prone to injury, it’s critical you understand how important the body’s fascia system is to athletic performance. Modern research and imaging technologies are showing us that it’s far more significant than we have long understood. That’s why Bill Parisi—founder of the Parisi Speed School—and extreme sports writer, Johnathon Allen, set out on a nationwide quest to interview the top experts in the field so they could present this new performance science in a paradigm shifting book that’s not only packed with practical information, but also entertaining to read! Fascia Training: A Whole-System Approach, explores the new evidence-based science of fascia training as explained by top experts in the field, including “Dr. Back Mechanic” Stu McGill, champion Olympic coach Dan Pfaff, founder of Anatomy Trains Tom Myers, biomechanist Ken Clark, founder of Sparta Science Phil Wagner MD, and assistant coach of the Philadelphia 76ersTodd Wright.
Fascia Training is a “must read” for anyone serious about improving performance and reducing injury.
