Great resource for anyone serious about stretching

This is the best stretching book I've ever seen because it offers many different exercises for just about every muscle in your body. I bought it because I have plantar fasciitis, and the book has several exercises targeted specifically at the muscle involved in this condition. But you could also use it if you want exercises specifically designed for golf or skiing or any number of other sports. The book has drawings of the specific muscle that is being stretched, which helps you visualize if you're doing the stretch correctly.
