95 Paperback RC76 For students and practicing massage therapists, this manual details how to isolate target muscles for palpation.
You must undertake compound movement exercises (like squats, bench press, dead-lifts, barbell bent over rowing, standing barbell curls, close grip bench press or military press) because these exercises involve not only the main target muscle fibers, but instead, strengthen and workout the related supporting muscle fibers as well.
These exercises specifically target muscles in the torso, abdomen and back.
