Developing Speed (Sport Performance Series) par Nsca -National Strength & Conditioning Association

Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing.

Very useful for the casual or distance runner who is starting too think specifically about speed work. For that very specific population, I would definitely recommend it. If you've got experience with speed work or training specifically for interval speed for a team sport or tennis, I'm not sure how much this will add to your repertoire. Although it's probably very useful for coaches looking for some additional drills for their youth or high school teams.

Developing the core par Jeffrey M. Willardson

I wish the book specifically covered a few additional sports, such as cycling and figure skating. Still, the first two sections of the book that discuss fundamentals and describe specific exercises gave me sufficient knowledge to adapt the workouts for other sports to suit my needs.… (plus d'informations)

Developing the Core (Sport Performance Series) par NSCA -National Strength & Conditioning Association

Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing.

I think this book is geared more towards someone working in sports or training than a person who is just looking for a quick guide on how to exercise. The book frequently references actual studies. The later half of book has exercise programs designed for specific sports by authors in each sport. I found these the most useful part of the book but wish the editor had made the authors all follow a more standardize format for presenting the programs.
