Un ottimo punto di partenza per chi vuole allenare il petto senza commettere errori di postura. Gli esercizi fondamentali sono spiegati con attenzione ai dettagli tecnici, tipo la posizione delle scapole durante le distensioni. Dopo qualche settimana ho notato piรน controllo nei movimenti anche senza pesi pesanti.
