About High-Performance Sports
Conditioning...
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.
