Essentials of Next-Generation Sports Speed Training

$39.95

The 2020 Sports Speed Training book provides the reader with a complete understanding of exactly how speed is improved for sports competition. It includes a thorough presentation in key areas such as strength training to increase ground reaction force, neuromuscular training to increase the rate of force production and the speed and distance of flight (both of which determine stride length and stride rate), form and technique training to make certain the maximum amount of available force is quickly applied to the ground at exactly the right time and in the right direction, and speed endurance training (repeated sprint ability) to allow athletes to execute multiple repetitions of a short sprint throughout a game with little or no slowing due to fatigue.

This 2020 book provides the reader with a complete understanding of exactly how speed is improved for sports competition. It includes a thorough presentation in key areas such as strength training to increase ground reaction force, neuromuscular training to increase the rate of force production and the speed and distance of flight (both of which determine stride length and stride rate), form and technique training to make certain the maximum amount of available force is quickly applied to the ground at exactly the right time and in the right direction, and speed endurance training (repeated sprint ability) to allow athletes to execute multiple repetitions of a short sprint throughout a game with little or no slowing due to fatigue. In addition, playing speed for specific sports is analyzed and includes multi-directional training and cutting, faking, and feinting, techniques for football, basketball, soccer, rugby, and other team sport athletes.
