Short but sweet and before it's time!

This is a classic little manual of a training method referred to as Manual Resistance. MR exercises can be used in group settings or when no other equipment is available. The only catch is that it requires a partner to apply the resistance. This is perfect for PE classes or group resistance classes when a change of pace is needed. This form of training is not very well known outside of HIT (High Intensity Training) circles or serious strength training buffs. However, more information can be found in a few other books such as "A Practical Approach To Strength Training", "High Intensity Training", and "New Workout: Human Resistance Training". While it's not a method that can be used alone, it's definitely a valuable training tool when a change of pace is needed or when no equipment is available but when a partner is. I would recommend this book for anyone interested in gaining some insight into this unique form of training.
