Today’s athletes are breaking
records that many thought were untouchable—in large part due to the
major advances in sports training. High-Performance Sports
Conditioning combines these superior modern methods with sample
training programs, workouts, and drills to serve as the only
conditioning guide you’ll need this season.
This landmark book presents the
principles and practices of this new era of athletic training in the
most thorough and useful text ever of its kind. The first step in
building a conditioning program is testing and building up the nine
essential fitness components including power, strength, speed,
quickness, coordination, agility, flexibility, local muscular endurance,
and cardiovascular aerobic capacity and endurance. Next you tailor the
training exercises and drills to the development of sport-specific
performance factors. Then you periodize the training program precisely
for peak performance at critical points in the competitive season, and
if necessary, use a safe and effective reconditioning regimen to bring
an athlete back from injury.
High-Performance Sports
Conditioning brings together 22 of the finest and most respected
contributors ever assembled for a sports conditioning guide. The
strength and conditioning coaches for the Cleveland Indians, Vancouver
Canucks, Miami Heat, Seattle Seahawks, Tampa Bay Mutiny, United States
Olympic Training Center, and other top sports organizations share their
best drills and workouts for developing full athletic potential in 11
sports. Internationally acclaimed experts such as Don Chu on power, Mark
Verstegen on coordination and agility, and Tudor Bompa on periodization
provide the very best information and insights in their respective areas
of training.
The revolutionary training
system found in High-Performance Sports Conditioning reveals the
future of athletic strength and conditioning and will be the training
bible for coaches and athletes for many seasons to come.
