Hey all,
This seems like a better venue than almost any to make this inquiry. I adore weightlifting and barbell sport, and find anatomy and the applied use of ergonomics very interesting as a rather serious recreational musician as well. I love to discover the "why" behind certain postures being optimal and how different movement patterns stress different soft tissues and what's optimal.
Do any of you know any good resources for this kind of work? My introduction to barbell technique was "Starting Strength, 3rd edition" and a great anatomy resource for gym knuckleheads is "Anatomy without a Scalpel." They're both great resources for someone with little background, but from a more medical and med.-related science background, are there any texts out there that would encompass this field yet do so in a more mature, serious manner?
Thanks for any hints and suggestions!
