Anatomy of Movement presents a dynamic, integrated approach to the study of the physical structures of the musculoskeletal system and their functional relationship to the movements of the human body.

In clear and concise text illustrated with more than a thousand graphic drawings, the author guides the reader on a lively tour of the muscles, bones, ligaments and joints of the arms, legs and trunk. The focus throughout the book is on anatomy not for its own sake, but in its functional relationship to the actual movements of the body in dance, exercise, and other physical disciplines. 

In this new 3rd edition, the author provides access—through QR codes—to 100 short videos that enable the reader to better visualize the movement of various anatomical structures of the body.

Lightweight Linen Shorts That Nail Summer Comfort and Value
Color: Light Khaki, Size: Medium, Color: Light Khaki, Size: Medium
These cotton-linen blend shorts are exactly what you want when the temperature climbs. The material is breathable and airy, with that slightly textured linen look that fits perfectly in a casual summer setting. They’re clearly designed for comfort first, and they deliver on that without feeling flimsy. The standout feature here is how lightweight they are. These don’t trap heat, and they stay comfortable even during extended wear in warm conditions. The fabric allows airflow while still providing enough structure to avoid looking sloppy. Fit is easygoing and practical. The elastic waistband combined with the drawstring gives flexibility to dial in the fit, and it stays secure without digging in. The 7-inch inseam hits a nice middle ground—not too short, not overly long—making these versatile for casual outings, lounging, or even quick errands. Construction is straightforward but solid for the price point. Stitching is consistent, and the shorts hold their shape well after wear. There’s a relaxed drape to the fabric that works with the style rather than against it. Pockets are functional and positioned where you’d expect, adding to everyday usability. Color is a soft light khaki that pairs easily with just about anything. It has that neutral, slightly warm tone that works well with summer shirts, polos, or even just a basic tee. Care is simple. These do fine in a standard wash, though air drying helps preserve the fabric and maintain the intended fit and texture over time, supporting overall durability for a lightweight garment like this. At this price, the value for money is excellent. You’re getting a comfortable, breathable pair of shorts that fit the season perfectly without overpaying. Overall, these are a solid go-to option for warm weather—lightweight, breathable, easy to wear, and well worth having in the rotation.
