Default Kindle, no workout charts!

Hi! I am currently deployed, and since the store here does not carry the book, I bought it for my Kindle. I read through it, but now I want to start the workouts, however, I don't see the images or the workout charts on my Kindle. Just text describing each "move" but no stages, no plans! I saw that werkit has logs, but I can't prove that I bought the book because the Kindle doesn't have page numbers, the references are by "locations" so each line I think, 1-4442. Does anyone know where I can go to get that information?

Where are you deployed? I can send a hard copy of the book to you, if it would help. (No telling how long it would take to get there, unfortunately.)

I bet if you PM Aoife she would give you access to the werkit grids. It won't help you with the pictures of the exercises but at least you will know what they should be how many reps/sets etc.. I have a kindle too and agree it is terrible for any book that has pictures or side boxes. I have stopped buying anything except chapter books for it.

Hi. Sorry, just woke up. We got your email and we're fixing that up for you now, sorry about that.

(If I were you I'd totally take Lou up on his offer. )

Once you get the logs, you can go to you tube to get videos of many of the moves. I agree that this is one book you want to have in hand. I took it out of the library and realized that I would be resourcing it so often that I needed to buy my own copy.
Best wishes with your deployment.
Mary

This stinks. I just bought the Kindle version last night but haven't gotten that far in. I'm not deployed like icy so I'll run to B&N and pick up a paper copy.
