Book excerpt: Athletic Development offers a rare opportunity to learn and apply a career full of knowledge from the best. World-renowned strength and conditioning coach Vern Gambetta condenses the wisdom he's gained through more than 40 years of experience of working with athletes across sports, age groups, and levels of competition, including members of the Chicago White Sox, New York Mets, and U.S. men's 1998 World Cup soccer team. The result is an information-packed, myth-busting explanation of the most effective methods and prescriptions in each facet of an athlete's physical preparation. Gambetta includes never-before-published and ready-to-use training approaches in - sport-specific demands analysis, - work capacity enhancements, - movement skills development, - long- and short-term training program progressions, and - rest and regeneration techniques. Athletic Development explains what works, what doesn't, and why. Gambetta's no-nonsense approach emphasizes results that pay off in the competitive season and reflect his work at the highest echelons of sport. Merging principles of anatomy, biomechanics, and exercise physiology with sports conditioning applications and four decades of professional practice, this is the definitive guide to performance-enhancing training.

Book excerpt: Do you dream of an athletic career, playing in high school, at college, or even as a professional? The road to athletic success is full of challenges--the greatest of which have nothing to do with being the fastest, biggest, or strongest. The Complete Athlete emphasizes character growth as the essential platform upon which to prepare youth soccer players to compete at the highest levels and be desirable recruits for college and/or professional coaches. This book emphasizes the idea that success is not determined solely by one's natural ability; it is also influenced by attitude and behavior, as well as how an athlete treats herself and others, both on and off the field of play. Hear from Mallory Weggemann in The Complete Athlete: The Cornerstone Book about her athletic journey and about how an athlete progresses through each of the five levels outlined here, from elementary school to the pros. Learn how a COMPLETE ATHLETE must achieve the highest levels in five different categories: ATTITUDE refers to how you behave on the field. For instance, listening quietly while your coach is talking and showing respect for your fellow players both demonstrate that you have a good attitude. PREPARATION refers to off-the-field activities, such as keeping your uniform clean and equipment well-maintained, learning everything you can about your sport, practicing purposefully, and more. FITNESS refers to the physical fitness needed to compete in your sport. TECHNIQUE revolves around skill level, including mastering the basics and specializing in a particular position. LIFESTYLE refers to how you treat yourself, including eating right and getting enough sleep. It also includes getting good grades and being a good member of your family and your community. Guidelines, suggestions, and real-life examples are provided by Paralympic Gold Medalist Mallory Weggemann, our Cornerstone Book Author. The Complete Athlete is a guidebook for athletes, parents, and coaches alike who believe that true success is about so much more than just athletic skill.

Book excerpt: Movement Over Maxes is a foundational training program that serves as that starting point for any athlete. It functions as a guide for all coaches to understand and implement basic movement patterns with a long-term development approach. It is a starting point that values movement above all. It is built to create movement competencies that will carry athletes through future endeavors with a solid foundation of development.The book Movement Over Maxes will provide fundamental progressions to the Big 5 movement patterns for all athletes. These are movement patterns every developing athlete should know: how to squat, hinge, push, pull, brace, land, jump, and sprint. The basics are the basics, whether the athlete is in high school or college. Although it was optimally built for the overhead athlete, this program isn't necessarily one of specialization. It is focused on developing the entire athlete and quality movement first and foremost so future loading can take place. Every concept in this manual will build upon the previous ones, leaving athletes with a well-rounded foundation.Movement Over Maxes was created for the coach who wears every hat for their program... the coach who mows the grass, drags the infield, handles the equipment, and trains the athletes. This is for the coach who devotes their life to not only creating better baseball players, but growing boys into men through sport.

Download or read book Strength and Conditioning for Female Athletes written by Keith Barker and published by The Crowood Press. This book was released on 2018-07-27 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women's sport in general has gained an increasingly higher profile and level of respect in recent years, and it is becoming widely acknowledged that a female athlete's training programmes will differ in several respects from that of their male counterparts. Despite this, there is a dearth of research evidence available to coaches and athletes to guide the planning and programming process, with limited comparisons of training adaptations between the genders and in particular, a lack of investigation into elite female performers. Strength and Conditioning for Female Athletes contains insights from various experts in this specialised area. This text outlines specifically what is and what isn't known regarding female athlete development, and exposes the gaps that currently exist in the academic literature, with practical examples of applied practice. Coaches, sports scientists and athletes themselves will find here a wealth of useful information, with topics including: needs analysis; programme design for the basic biomotor abilities; speed and agility; long-term athlete development; the menstrual cycle and gender-specific injuries.
