Strength and Conditioning for Team Sports
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-415-63792-3 (ISBN)
The book introduces the core science underpinning different facets of physical preparation, covering all aspects of training prescription and the key components of any degree-level strength and conditioning course, including:
physiological and performance testing
strength training
metabolic conditioning
power training
agility and speed development
training for core stability
training periodisation
training for injury prevention
Bridging the traditional gap between sports science research and practice, each chapter features guidelines for evidence-based best practice as well as recommendations for approaches to physical preparation to meet the specific needs of team sports players. This new edition also includes an appendix that provides detailed examples of training programmes for a range of team sports. Fully illustrated throughout, it is essential reading for all serious students of strength and conditioning, and for any practitioner seeking to extend their professional practice.
