Infos

The second edition of this broadly based book continues to examine and update the basic and applied aspects of strength and power in sport from the neurophysiology of the basic motor unit to training for specific activities. Authorship is, again, international and includes leading physiologists and clinicians.

Rezensionen

REVIEWS OF THE FIRST EDITION

"The overlap between chapters helps to reinforce theories and
allows each chapter to be read independently.

The chapters give some insight into the amount of work expected of
the elite athlete, the importance of the correct training and at
various stages in the season, and who requires strength or power
and how to gain it.

It is a reference book to which one will return time and
again."

Physiotherapy, 1992

".comprehensive overview of structural hormonal, neural, and
mechanical factors related to the expression of strength and
power.

This book provides a wealth of up-to-date information.a fine
reference".

Journal of the American College of Sports Medicine, 1993

"This volume on strength and power, together with its companion
Endurance in Sport are exactly what many of us in the field have
been waiting for.

.this book is a must for all interested in the scientific aspects
of strength and power."

British Journal of Sports Medicine, 1993

"This is a very well organised, well written and well presented
book.[the] 29 contributors all.have well-established international
reputations in their particular fields of study.

.the book will be essential reading for many graduate students in
certain aspects of medicine and sports science. In addition, the
book will be of considerable interest to sports scientists, sports
medicine doctors, physiotherapists, podiatrists and athletic
trainers. In general, the book is an excellent addition to the
literature on strength and power in sport."

Scottish Journal of Physical Education, 1993
