The core is our engine, our hub of activity. Strength there makes life easier for shoulders and knees. It produces speed and explosiveness. Endurance and grit. The core is so important. So why has it remained such a medical mystery? This book will explain that. Introducing the Core: Demystifying the Body of an Athlete traces the arc of the journey from injury to restoration of power to the return to normal life. Dr. William Meyers is the nation?s foremost authority on core health. Along with over 40 world-renowned expert contributors, Dr. Meyers explains how the core functions through stories from his work in locker rooms, the operating room, and the playing fields of elite athletes, giving readers a thorough understanding of the core?s widespread influence on athleticism and the human anatomy. 606 $aSports$xPhysiological aspects 606 $aAthletes$xHealth and hygiene 615 0$aSports$xPhysiological aspects. 615 0$aAthletes$xHealth and hygiene. 676 $a612/.044 700 $aBradley$b Michael J.$01468178 702 $aMeyers$b William C.$cM.D., 702 $aGordon$b Rob 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793461303321 996 $aIntroducing the core$93679174 997 $aUNINA
