4.0 out of 5 stars Health/Fitness tools for the desk & computer worker, January 9, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Stretching at Your Computer or Desk (Paperback)

Unlike many fitness titles, this book promotes stretchingroutines to be done _at one's job_; the illustrations usepeople in office clothes, sitting in office chairs or standing by copy machines, and the routines have titles like "stretches" for Keyboard Operators", "Office Meeting Stretches", "On-the- phone Stretches", etc. The rationale and technique for stretching are quickly introduced in the 1st 8 pages, but there's great additional resources to dig into later in the book too. If every office had a copy to check out, there'd be fewer computer-related ailments.

Its time that Amazon starts offering the software along with the book. Authors like Bob Anderson are culture changers! Amazon needs to transform to benefitial culture changes like StretchWare.
