While other textbooks focus on a single aspect of youth trainability, this book explores every key topic in strength and conditioning as applied to young people, including:
talent identification
motor skill development
strength, power and plyometrics
speed and agility
metabolic conditioning
mobility and flexibility
periodization
weightlifting myths
overtraining and injury prevention
nutrition.
Written by a team of leading international strength and conditioning experts and paediatric sport scientists, every chapter includes programming guidelines for youths throughout childhood and adolescence to show how the latest scientific research can be applied by coaches to optimize young athletic potential. This is an essential resource for all students of strength and conditioning or paediatric exercise science, as well as any coach or athletic trainer working with children and young people.
