 Terrific health guide July 25, 2007

I absolutely love this deck. It provides a really comprehensive guide to stretching pretty much any muscle group in your body, keeping you flexible and feeling really good. I naturally get very tight muscles, so I've found this to be an invaluable little tool to help me stay looser. It's organized in a very user-friendly way, with an overall body picture to show where in the deck to find stretches for specific muscles. Each stretch then has illustrations and step-by-step instructions on how to do it correctly, and tells what benefit it provides. Not enough people stretch regularly, and it's something that everyone should do to take care of their body, so I highly recommend this.

if you like box books (and i do) then you'll enjoy this. the stretches are basic but you can pull a few out and do them each day. good explanations of the stretches and precautions.

The authors of this Stretch Deck really came up with 50 superb stretches, some of which I was unfamilar with. It would seem they have all the bases covered from head to toe. I like these "decks" because I don't always have the patience to go to a fitness class or watch a DVD and if I know and understand many of the exercises I can do them myself at home. Olivia Miller also authors the Yoga Deck which is another superb product.
Great stretches August 10, 2005

These are great basic stretches. Each is nicely illustrated on one side of a card with written instructions and benefits on the other side. One complaint...the illustrations are white on a gray background. I believe they would be more visible with more contrast...Still would not have kept me from buying or using them.

I bought this a couple of days ago. Its portable and many of the excercises can be performed simply even at your work desk. I have been doing the neck stretches and they seem to work very well. The illustrations in the back are nice and the directions for the stretches are easy to understand.
