I'm a published author!!!

[I dont work at Ballys]

After over 2 years of hard work, I am now published in a Kinesiology text! I wrote a chapter on the Principles of Strengthening Exercises, which includes detailed explanations and case studies of all the "crazy" **** i used to talk about on here years back...lol

Even better, Dr. Muscolino (whom I work for) asked me to co-author his next book which will focus on functional kinesiology! (simply put, an atlas of functional groups and specific exercises and stretches for each). Anyways here are a few pics....

if you enjoy the writing process, it really is alot of fun. tedious at times, but most things in life (worth doing) are. and yeah, i really tried to make this different from the rest of the market by putting in alot of progressive concepts and up to date info. not sure about price, i think it will go for about 50? www.learnmuscles.com is the main authors website. thanks again!

Congratulations. That's an awesome accomplishment.

thanks! btw did you deadlift that? (in your profile)

gjdm whats your background and how did you go about getting published?

i have been working with the main author (Dr. Muscolino) for a few years assisting his cadaver labs and other workshops...i have a few training certifications but actually dont even have a bachelors (the Chiropractic college here has a matriculation program). i tried not to base the chapter around any of what i had learned from training ***** though, i wanted it to be original.

the process of getting published starts with a book proposal, which can actually be downloaded from many publishers websites. proposals actually take a good amount of time to complete, and typically take a month or 2 to hear a response if they are interested...
