About this ebook
Josh Leeger debunks the modern “fitness industry” and provides basic principles about how the body works to help to guide anyone to success in physical activity and lifelong health.
The myriad of physical training practices are all fantastic in their own way. There’s something to be learned from every discipline, be it martial arts, yoga, Olympic weightlifting, bodybuilding, Pilates, Crossfit, kettlebell lifting, or bodyweight-only training.
Beneath all of those things lies the function of the body. All methods exploit different aspects of the moving human body. The purpose of this manual is to give the reader the power to change their body in the precise ways they want to. We’ll do that by uncovering and understanding the principles of adaptation and their application.
Change - in your own life, or in society - does not start with “movements” or “trends.” It starts with YOU!
