Explore the Google Books preview and bibliographic details before choosing an edition.
Eight chapters cover professional foundations, kinesiology, exercise physiology, fitness assessment, flexibility, resistance training, speed and agility, and sports nutrition. Exercises and tests accompany the scientific concepts.
Readers can use the assessment and kinesiology chapters to understand why an exercise belongs in a program, then move to the sections on resistance training, speed and agility to compare practical applications. The scope is broader than a single workout plan: it is intended as a reference for choosing, teaching and evaluating training methods.
Coaches, athletes and readers who want a structured introduction to the principles and practice of strength and conditioning.
Philipp Halfmann earned a master’s degree in Exercise & Sports Science at Florida International University. His coaching and academic background inform this textbook.
