Strength and Conditioning for Young Athletes: Science and Application offers an evidence-based introduction to the theory and practice of strength and conditioning for young athletes. This new revised and updated, third edition builds on the success of the first two editions and draws on leading research to offer a holistic approach to training centred on the concept of long-term athletic development and the welfare of the young athlete.
Written by a team of leading international strength and conditioning experts and paediatric sport scientists, the book includes expanded practical guidelines in every chapter to show how the latest scientific research can be applied by coaches to optimise young athletic potential. Including sample training programmes and exercises throughout, the third edition of Strength and Conditioning for Young Athletes explores a wide range of topic areas linked to long-term athletic development such as growth and maturation, talent identification and development, methods of developing different components of fitness, and programme design. This edition also introduces new topics including: monitoring and managing training load, the impact of growth and maturation on psychosocial development, creating appropriate training environments and applied chapters devoted to integrating strength and conditioning into schools, early specialization sports, and sporting academies.
This is an essential resource for all students of strength and conditioning or paediatric exercise science, as well as any coach, athletic trainer or physician working with children and young people and their parents.
