Anatomy for Strength and Fitness Training by Mark Vella
Offering the reader more than just the 'how to' of exercise and training, this work uses anatomical illustrations of the way muscles and tendons work, and provides a visual insight into what happens to the body during exercise. It also covers basic anatomy, and an explanation of muscle analysis.

He lectures to fitness professionals on a variety of health science topics, including anatomy and physiology, kinesiology, health assessment, medical screening, fitness testing, training methods and principles, postural assessment, programming, exercise prescription and nutrition, and has been active in developing standards and manuals for fitness trainers in his native South Africa.
