I did not want to get this book, but three weeks into my course I found it might be necessary, instead of wasting time of the internet to find things. I wish it was in ibooks. I am not a huge fan of the kindle version. But the book itself is great

5.0 out of 5 stars university book
Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseBought this item for my son who is doing a uni course in sports and science, so he needed it for his course.
A bit overpriced but the cheapest I could find on the internet. I had no choice but to pay as Son required it for his course.

5.0 out of 5 stars fantastic book, a keeper, full of excellent knowledge for anyone interested in kinesiology/muscles/exercise
Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseAs students we purchase dozens of books because they are required for our courses. However, many of them are just boring, or just collect dust as they are barely used during the class.
However, the Manual of Structural Kinesiology by Floyd has been a fantastic read with excellent information, it is very well written and only covers what is essential to kinesiology students. All the muscles are displayed, explained, with pronunciation for those like myself who have a hard time reading some of these Greek/Latin terms. In the back of the book there is a chart that lists muscle groups precises, so you will better understand what muscles are being used during the most common exercises.
I will end it there. Seeing that you are here, you are probably buying this book for class. This book is worth buying for sure, don't rent it. Unlike other books, this one is something you will want to keep and highlight and book mark for sure. I will be going back and forth to this book for a very long time. I would highly recommend reading it in its entirety.
One of the most important things you will get out of this book is to ALWAYS make sure you have good posture... Stand of straight and keep the erector spinae muscles strong!

5.0 out of 5 stars Overall I'm really happy with this new type of knowledge that I'm learning
Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseThis book has tremendous knowledge for Human Movement, I've been using this for my kinesiology class. And this book as been really resourceful because sometime I forget terminology of a certain muscle or bone structure. This book has everyone thing you need to know about ankles,spinal column,hip, pelvis, arms, knee and foot structures along with visuals and texts to really understand the depth of each around for overall health for them and how to strengthen them as well (give you idea on how to per say). Overall I'm really happy with this new type of knowledge that I'm learning, just beware this is challenging concept to grasp.
