The guide to specialist literature: Health and fitness books

People will always be interested (at least in theory) in maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Consequently there will always be demand for health and fitness books as anyone keen on trying to improve their health or fitness will be interested in books which will help them do so.

Health and fitness books come in two forms: Diet and lifestyle guides and anatomy books. The former focus on healthy living in general whereas the latter give specific body advice which is more suited to athletes and sportsmen. Examples of health and fitness books which focus on the human anatomy include texts from sports scientists and physiotherapists on how to treat injuries or build strength in certain body parts. For instance Treat You Own Knees by Brad Walker provides a comprehensive guide to treating 26 common knee injuries and is an aid to those undergoing injury ...
... rehabilitation. More works which fall into the same bracket including The Concise Book of Muscles written by Chris Jarmey. Intended as a teaching aid to physiotherapy training courses, this is a reference guide to the six major muscle groups in the body and shows how they work and how they can be strengthened. There are plenty of specialist health and fitness books which offer instructions on how to improve technique and performance in certain sports as well as explaining particular exercises. The Anatomy of Pilates by Paul Massey for instance takes you inside the body to show you how the exercises work.
