| Muscles play an important role in every archer's life whether he is
a 3-D specialist or hunter. How we take care of those muscles can
mean the difference between a 12 ring or a trophy of a lifetime.
Dave Cole has realized this and has assembled many of today's well-known
bowhunters to discuss muscle care and development. Their collaboration
along with Dave's training device, the Bowfit, is available in today's
most extensive exercise video for archers, "Archery Fit: Strengthening
tips from the Pros".
In
"Archery Fit" you will be guided by professionals and top archers such
as Tom Nelson, Randy Ulmer, Brenda Valentine, Dwight Schuh, George Chapman,
Alexander Kirillov, Joella Bates and and G. Fred Asbell with advice on
how to continue your passion of archery through exercise. They target
specific muscle groups explaining their vital role in the important cycle
of drawing and shooting your bow. Each will highlight their favorite
workout routines and explain how they will help prevent some of today's
plaguing injuries. These routines will not only include training
exercises but also tips that you can use during practice sessions.
These unique tips are extremely helpful in developing those muscles necessary
to hold your bow while waiting for the game to present a shot.
Dave Cole, a physical therapist by profession, breaks down what he feels
causes the most common muscle injuries.
Dave goes into details on how each is caused and more importantly what
you can do to help prevent them. Helpful hints are introduced, such
as taping yourself, which will help discover bow mechanics that can lead
to nagging injuries.
Graphs
and diagrams are used to help show and explain the necessary muscles that
are used during each exercise. I believe this is not only helpful
but vital in education by showing which muscles groups are utilized and
are sometimes overlooked.
Bowhunting is a sport just like any other sport that requires
muscle strength to perform. Athletes warm up extensively before they
hit the field or court and archery is no different. So while preparing
for next season, which is a year round activity for all archers, I recommend
you look into the comprehensive video "Archery Fit: Strengthening tips
from the Pros".
