The Athletic Musician is an innovative approach that teaches musicians how to prevent and manage injuries, presented in a unique format that combines sound medical protocol with a musicians point of view. Harrison, a musician, discusses the magnitude of the problem of musicians injuries with reference to statistical surveys and discusses the emotional and psychological impact of injury on the individual musician. Paull, an orthopedic physiotherapist describes, in laymans terms, the athletic approach to a musicians injuries. Each commonly injured area is examined in turn, from neck, back and shoulder pain to arm, wrist and hand problems. For each area, the anatomy is described, followed by an explanation of what causes the injury and how to avoid or prevent the injury from occurring.Musicians should regard themselves as elite musical athletes and protect themselves from injury by following athletic training protocols. The authors present appropriate stretching regimes and postural corrections for both on and off stage, as well as ergonomic changes to instrument and playing positions. The text is amply illustrated with sketches for every exercise and stretch, photographs of musicians demonstrating playing postures, and unique anatomical drawings of musicians.The Athletic Musician presents researchbased, scientific material in a format that is relevant, clear, and practical for all musicians. The combination of a medical and musical perspectives makes it an indispensable guide for all musicians and the health care professionals who aspire to help them.

I thought this guide would be more about exercises and remedies for pain, but it felt more like a general discussion. Some parts were useful, but overall I didn't find it as practical as I hoped. Disappointed with the lack of specific advice.

Helpful but Slow Delivery
The content is solid and I've learned a lot about playing without pain. However, it took almost two weeks to arrive, which was frustrating. Still, I think it’ll be useful for my practice sessions.
