    “Book Descriptions: Commonly referred to by readers as an "exercise Bible," Overcoming Gravity is a comprehensive guide that provides a gold mine of information for gymnastics and bodyweight strength training within its large 8.5"x11" size and nearly 600 pages. Steven Low takes the reader on a journey through logically constructing a strength-oriented bodyweight workout routine. With a highly systematic approach, he delves into the physiology behind strength training equips the reader to adequately prepare their body for the rigors of bodyweight training. This book covers much ground that other books do not, offering information health and injury management, factors that contribute to a successful routine, and actual program implementation. If you prefer your health and fitness books to include scientific data, comprehensive sample programming, and effective recommendations, Overcoming Gravity is the ideal choice for your library. This Second Edition has been revised, expanded, and re-organized to read easier, provide more content, and offer easily accessible next-steps for beginner, intermediate, and advanced populations. Notable improvements from the first edition include the Note : This book does not contain primary gymnastics skill work like cartwheels, tumbling, swings, giants, etc.

    For a book preview including Table of Contents, Introduction, Chapter 1-3, and Charts, v2.1 4/17/17: ~25 editing and illustration errors are fixed. v2.2 5/2/17: Page 38 missing fixed. Page 5/19/22-6/4/22: Amazon/Kindle stopped manufacturing the book due to changing their max page size to 590 (mine was 598). The solution was to compress the interior to keep all of the content. All exercise progressions used to have their own pages, but now a few are two on a page.”
