Strength, Speed & Power: More Than 100 Exercises to Help You Run Faster, Jump Higher, and Throw Harder - Softcover
Synopsis
Improve your performance in any sport -- Strength, Speed, and Power covers in one book what others cover in three. In fact, the closest competitor to this book (Jumping into Plyometrices, Second Edition, 1998, Human Kinetics) covers only one aspect of power training -- plyometric exercises -- and doesn't provide strength or speed exercises which build the foundation for all power training. -- This book contains detailed illustrations and exercise captions for all exercises. Most exercises in Jumping into Plyometrics are limited to 50-word captions which do not allow for a thorough understanding of some of the complex movements involved. -- There are now many books about how to improve one's performance for a given sport, but very few discuss the fact that increased human performance is a goal desired not only by elite athletes. Everyone can benefit from increased strength, speed, agility and even power. This book covers the most important elements necessary to improve one's performance through the principles of power. Following an illustrative, step-by-step plan, readers will first learn the importance of developing a foundation of strength needed to move on to more advanced exercises. Next, they'll learn how to improve their speed, balance, quickness and agility. Once they've mastered the elements of strength and speed, and have properly conditioned and prepared their body, they will learn how to begin increasing their power to improve their overall performance. Each of the three main parts of this book contains approximately 25 illustrated exercise descriptions. Illustrations consist of a combination of wire frame drawings and photographs.
