Before we start, yes, this is freaking long. I know. I originally wrote this for people at Reddit, and only made a few minor edits for .

First off, a squabble with how the book was published: I ended up paying 50 euros to purchase the book and get it shipped over here, at .com, which is a US-based website. This is odd because I live in the Netherlands, so it would’ve made much more sense to order at .co.uk or .de, but then I would’ve paid 50 euros for just the book sans the shipping. This is odd and in dire need of correction.

On , all you read are rave reviews of how the book will change your life and will instantly make you the healthiest human being on the planet and all that… well, I don’t believe in magic bullets, and neither should you. Don’t take this as me saying the book isn’t good; it is and there are definitely a lot of things I’ve learnt from it. However, I don’t think it’s the be-all-end-all of fitness books.

Overall, the book is well-written; very digestible writing. However, I can see that if you’re new to this, you’ll probably have a hard time on some parts, and will be overwhelmed by the sheer volume of information. Because there is a lot of information: there are 32 individual movements described, ranging from a basic air squat to a muscle-up and there are over a 150 pages describing specific mobility techniques.

The book starts of with an introduction, which, as expected, is Kelly banging his own drum loudly for a couple pages; there is no real info there. From there on out, the book is divided up into roughly three parts:

* Introduction to/Explanation of the movement and mobility system: this explains Kelly’s general rules for movement, mainly concerning spinal organisation and bracing.
I must first let you know that I am not one to review books. I wrote my first book almost 2 years ago and I understand the incredible task it is to undertake something that Kelly has done. I have read hundreds of books in my life. Going through Pre-Med and then on through Chiropractic School I was expected to read every book having to do with anatomy, physiology, neurology, and you name it. I have spent over 20 years treating patients for back, neck, shoulder, hip, elbow, wrist, knee, and ankle problems. I have attended over a hundred seminars dedicated to teaching me to better understand the dynamics of the human body and how to help my patients heal faster and completely. I have also dedicated a large percentage of my practice to treating athletes and the injuries they suffer. Also being certified in Physiotherapy I have always tried to stay as competent as I can to help them heal from their injuries and most importantly to help prevent them.

I came across Kelly’s work over a year ago through his mobilityWOD.com site. I was so impressed with the dedication he showed by posting a daily video on helping others not only treat but prevent injuries. When I heard of his upcoming book I can say for the first time in a long time I was very excited for a new book to read. I pre-ordered it many months ago and continued to check for its release like a kid waiting for Christmas. I received my copy early this week and after spending about 4 days and unable to put it down, reading it at every opportunity, let me summarize my thoughts on what I can say without question is the absolute best volume of information I have ever seen compiled in one book that addresses the human body.
