Book synopsis

This book provides the definitive guide to how strength and conditioning (S&C) can be effectively applied in football, up to professional level. S&C is well established as a cornerstone of sports science in elite sport and professional football now includes S&C as a key part in the preparation and training of players, with S&C specialists helping to make players more robust, more efficient and more explosive. Applying true S&C expertise to help all players become more effective, this book covers all aspects which contribute to successful practice including effective communication, the performance model based approach which underpins the practice and, of course, practical exercise prescription. This guide deals in much more than a list of exercises. Critical topics such as effective coaching, injury prevention philosophy and practice, performance enhancement and monitoring are covered in depth. The book represents a unique resource for both existing and aspiring football S&C coaches as well as sports science graduates. In a developing field, this pioneering text will help to shape and define the role of the S&C coach within the sport.
