Being a personal trainer, I contacted one of the authors (Andrea Leonard) who was offering a training course based on her book. I jumped at the chance. The book is filled with great exercises, information and resources. The book is not only essential for exercising, but essential to personal trainers who want to work with breast cancer clients. This book is a groundbreaking standard in the field.
A definite must for ANY health professional

I have the 2000 edition of this book and ABSOLUTELY love it! I am a post-rehab conditioning specialist as well as a personal trainer and recommend this book to anyone that will have to design an exercise program for breast cancer survivors. It provides excellent information about different surgical procedures and exercise indications and contraindications! It illustrates and explains "level appropriate" exercises for stretching, ROM, and resistance training! GREAT REFERENCE BOOK!
