Description
The rise of people who participate in slacklining has been steadily increasing since its inception roughly thirty years ago. Yet there has been no research looking at what effect this activity has on the human body. This book will provide insight into body systems that are effected by slacklining. This book should help answer the question of why do people engage in slacklining, and should be especially usefully to those curious about slacklining as well as educators, and health field workers interested in expanding their knowledge of exercise activities.
