Summary

Effective athletic training is tailored to suit the specific sporting needs of the athlete. A soccer player needs to develop strength, agility and endurance but their fitness and exercise recovery requirements will vary throughout the soccer season. In response to the lack of in-depth and up-to-date material focusing on this area,Science of Athletic Trainingprovides clear guidelines, an evidence base and a theoretical framework for proven effective soccer training in practice. Some of the key features in this new manual include: * annual programme and pre-season training * avoiding over-training and reducing the risk of injury * strength, power and anaerobic training * alternative training for soccer * nutrition, diet, sleep and lifestyle. This is a thorough text with impressive attention to detail. The book presents lots of graphic illustrations and explains the research-based rationale for the advice given. This is an essential tool for students andprofessionals in sports science and sports coaching.
