Stretching Posters | Stretches Wall Charts
Perfect for adorning the walls of gyms, personal work-out spaces, classrooms, lecture halls, dance studios and a host of other sporting spaces, fitness publishers Lotus Publishing's eye-catching posters provide the ideal reminder of the importance of stretching.
Save yourself the hassle of hauling around a massive text book, stretching publications, pieces of literature or print outs, and instead invest in a useful, clearly set-out poster offering a host of stretches that can be mixed and matched depending on the requirements individual/needs of the athlete.
Three individual posters are available: an upper body stretching poster (providing stretches for such key muscles as: pectoralis major and minor, biceps and triceps), lower body stretching poster (providing streches for such key muscles as the qudriceps, hamstrings and glutes) and neck/back and core stretching poster (providing stretches for such key muscles as the obliques, trapezius and rhomboids), which, when combined, offer a stretch for every key muscle in the body; so whether you are about to undertake such diverse sporting activities as kayaking, triple-jumping or basketball, you will have access to a host of stretches to improve your flexibility and game, while also protecting yourself from potential sporting injuries.
Each stretching poster features sixteen individual stretches, each with their own clear description of how to undertake the stretch, what is happening to the muscles when you stretch and highlighting the muscles being used in red (both the primary and secondary muscles used are highlighted), in each specific stretch.
The images used are taken from Lotus Publishing's best-selling text book, Brad Walker's The Anatomy of Stretching, and are hand-drawn showing high level muscle detail. The posters, similar posters of which are not available from any other publisher, are popular among a vast range of enthusiasts and professionals who are interested in encouraging flexibility as well as injury rehabilitation and prevention, from physical therapists to coaches, from sports students to sporting professionals. The posters can be easily fixed to walls, and have a slight gloss texture meaning they are eye-catching as well as practical.
The importance of stretching, both for warming up and warming down, and even during sporting activity, can often be overlooked during training sessions. Lotus Publishing's eye-catching posters serve as a reminder of the importance of stretching, and offer a whole host of stretches for every type of activity. Stretching not only warms the muscles helping athletes to perform better, but stretching also aids flexibility, helps reduce sporting injuries and accidents and can help the rehabilitation of damaged muscles.
The three stretching posters would make the perfect accompaniment for Brad Walker's Lotus Publishing publication The Anatomy of Stretching. The posters serve as a practical reference guide to those keen to see the stretches, and which muscles they are using, in a practical environment, should further information about stretching, and a yet more in-depth range of stretches be required, however, The Anatomy of Stretching provides more information. Together they make the ultimate package, covering a complete guide to stretching, to aid flexibility and a strong, injury-free body.
