Summary: "Sports fitness training is all about developing physical conditions to improve sports performance and skills. Sports training programs can help to improve strength flexibility and stamina to improve performance in specific sports. Options include increasing arm strength for tennis playing or improve strength and core stability providing better balance playing golf. Today’s athletes are breaking records that many thought were untouchable–in large part due to the major advances in sports training. There are several universally accepted scientific training principles that must be followed in order to improve sports conditioning and performance. Because every athlete is different, each person’s response to exercise will vary. This book provides the very best information and insights on sports fitness training. It combines explanations of modern methods with sample training programs, workouts and drills for successful application. The state-of-the-art training prescriptions presented in this book will lead to the way to the future of athletic strength and conditioning. It will be very helpful to anyone looking to do any kind of training for sports or even for general conditioning. This is a complete training book which is the equivalent of a personal coach, trainer, and sports medicine doctor in one volume with illustrations."--Back cover.
