Biofeedback (BFB) in practical sport and exercise is under used and misunderstood, despite recent remarkable technical advances. It is a vital method of training athletes which increases individual awareness and control over the body and reduces habitual physiological tensions.

Written by leading international experts, this ground-breaking book brings together, for the first time, current research and applications and shows how different BFB approaches can be used in various sports. Unique features of this book include:

  • How to transfer BFB training from the lab to the field

  • BFB intervention for the daily training process

  • BFB training geared to a specific sport

  • How to measure athletic self-regulation

  • An appendix detailing the latest BFB devices
Brain and Body in Sport and Exercise: Biofeedback Applications in Performance Enhancement is an essential resource, not only for the specialist in sport psychology, but also for practitioners such as athletes, coaches and physical education teachers and students interested in the area of sport psychophysiology and biofeedback.

"This text is long overdue and combines knowledge gained through psychophysiological research and applied to the implementation of biofeedback techniques with athletes. In my view there is no comparable publication to date. It should be useful as a resource for students and practitioners alike." Dr Jan Graydon, Head of Sports Studies, University College Chichester, UK
