I started reading this book in grad school and finally got around to finishing it. It is a great introduction to biomechanics and does a good job of bridging anatomical and kinesiology topics in too. The quizzes at the end of each chapter was helpful, as were the elaborations in some of the later chapters such as angular kinematic and golf swing.

Buenas explicaciones y ejemplos de los movimientos

[Sofyan Sahrom]

Decent Book. Simple explanation. Will not classify it as a bad book. But not the best either.
