Book Essentials of Strength Training and Conditioning

Download or read book Essentials of Strength Training and Conditioning written by Thomas R. Baechle and published by Human Kinetics. This book was released on 2008 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in its third edition, Essentials of Strength Training and Conditioningis the most comprehensive reference available for strength and conditioning professionals. In this text, 30 expert contributors explore the scientific principles, concepts, and theories of strength training and conditioning as well as their applications to athletic performance. Essentials of Strength Training and Conditioningis the most-preferred preparation text for the Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) exam. The research-based approach, extensive exercise technique section, and unbeatable accuracy of Essentials of Strength Training and Conditioningmake it the text readers have come to rely on for CSCS exam preparation. The third edition presents the most current strength training and conditioning research and applications in a logical format designed for increased retention of key concepts. The text is organized into five sections. The first three sections provide a theoretical framework for application in section 4, the program design portion of the book. The final section offers practical strategies for administration and management of strength and conditioning facilities. -Section 1 (chapters 1 through 10) presents key topics and current research in exercise physiology, biochemistry, anatomy, biomechanics, endocrinology, sport nutrition, and sport psychology and discusses applications for the design of safe and effective strength and conditioning programs. -Section 2 (chapters 11 and 12) discusses testing and evaluation, including the principles of test selection and administration as well as the scoring and interpretation of results. -Section 3 (chapters 13 and 14) provides techniques for warm-up, stretching, and resistance training exercises. For each exercise, accompanying photos and instructions guide readers in the correct execution and teaching of stretching and resistance training exercises. This section also includes a set of eight new dynamic stretching exercises. -Section 4 examines the design of strength training and conditioning programs. The information is divided into three parts: anaerobic exercise prescription (chapters 15 through 17), aerobic endurance exercise prescription (chapter 18), and periodization and rehabilitation (chapters 19 and 20). Step-by-step guidelines for designing resistance, plyometric, speed, agility, and aerobic endurance training programs are shared. Section 4 also includes detailed descriptions of how principles of program design and periodization can be applied to athletes of various sports and experience levels. Within the text, special sidebars illustrate how program design variables can be applied to help athletes attain specific training goals. -Section 5 (chapters 21 and 22) addresses organization and administration concerns of the strength training and conditioning facility manager, including facility design, scheduling, policies and procedures, maintenance, and risk management. Chapter objectives, key points, key terms, and self-study questions provide a structure to help readers organize and conceptualize the information. Unique application sidebars demonstrate how scientific facts can be translated into principles that assist athletes in their strength training and conditioning goals. Essentials of Strength Training and Conditioningalso offers new lecture preparation materials. A product specific Web site includes new student lab activities that instructors can assign to students. Students can visit this Web site to print the forms and charts for completing lab activities, or they can complete the activities electronically and email their results to the instructor. The instructor guide provides a course description and schedule, chapter objectives and outlines, chapter-specific Web sites and additional resources, definitions of primary key terms, application questions with recommended answers, and links to the lab activities. The presentation package and image bank, delivered in Microsoft PowerPoint, offers instructors a presentation package containing over 1,000 slides to help augment lectures and class discussions. In addition to outlines and key points, the resource also contains over 450 figures, tables, and photos from the textbook, which can be used as an image bank by instructors who need to customize their own presentations. Easy-to-follow instructions help guide instructors on how to reuse the images within their own PowerPoint templates. These tools can be downloaded online and are free to instructors who adopt the text for use in their courses. Essentials of Strength Training and Conditioning, Third Edition,provides the latest and most comprehensive information on the structure and function of body systems, training adaptations, testing and evaluation, exercise techniques, program design, and organization and administration of facilities. Its accuracy and reliability make it not only the leading preparation resource for the CSCS exam but also the definitive reference that strength and conditioning professionals and sports medicine specialists depend on to fine-tune their practice.

Book Effect of Power Clean and Split Jerk on Vertical Jump Performance

Download or read book Effect of Power Clean and Split Jerk on Vertical Jump Performance written by Greg Carrasquillo and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: The purpose of the researcher was to examine the effects of power clean and split jerk on acute vertical jump performance. Division III football players (N = 19) completed 2 testing sessions. The 2 sessions consisted of a pre and poststimulus vertical jump test. The stimulus (power clean or split jerk) was randomly assigned at the first session and the other stimulus was completed during. the second session. A 2 x 2 Repeated Measures analysis of varience (ANOVA) was used to determine if differences or an interaction existed between condition (power clean and spit jerk). No significant interactions (p > .05) were found for jump height. A repeated measures t-test was used to determine if differences existed between conditions for relative strength. No significant differences were found between the two movements. No main effect was found between the two movements. Improvements were found in both the exercises on vertical jump but none were significant. The split jerk had an average improvement of .57 in while the power clean group had an average increase of .06 in. The two variables were both effective in having improvements to vertical jump performance after a four minute rest period.

Book EFFECTS OF DEPTH JUMPS AND HANG POWER CLEANS ON VERTICAL JUMP PERFORMANCE

Download or read book EFFECTS OF DEPTH JUMPS AND HANG POWER CLEANS ON VERTICAL JUMP PERFORMANCE written by Renee E. Zernicke and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT:The purpose of this investigation was to examine the effects of a depth jump training program versus a hang power clean training program on performance variables such as countermovement vertical jump (CMVJ) and squat jump (SJ) over 6 weeks. Division III female volleyball players (N = 14) completed the pre- and post-testing sessions along with 12 training sessions. The pre-test session was comprised of two trials of a CMVJ and two trials of a SJ. Following the CMVJ and SJ trials, the hang power clean group performed a I-repetition maximum (I-RM) in the hang power clean, while optimal box height was assessed for the depth jump group. The post-test session was comprised of two trials of the CMVJ and SJ. Two 2 x 2 mixed factorial ANOVAs were calculated to analyze the differences between the depth jump training group and hang power clean training group from pre-test to post-test. No significant (p =.26) mean difference was found in the CMVJ between groups. No significant (p =.13) mean difference was found in the SJ between groups. The depth jump training group and hang power clean group both significantly (p =.00) increased in the CMVJ and SJ from pre- to post-test.
