The Science of Rugby is the only book to examine the scientific
principles underpinning the preparation of rugby players for high
performance. Drawing on the very latest scientific evidence, and
covering both codes (union and league), the book explores every
aspect of training and in-match performance and introduces best
practice by leading coaches and sports science professionals from
around the rugby world. The book covers key topics such as:
Performance analysis Monitoring match and training demands
Periodization and training plans Metabolic conditioning Strength
and power training Speed and agility training Management of fatigue
Managing and preventing injury Psychological preparation
Biomechanics Nutrition Talent identification and youth development
Each chapter includes an extensive case-study that demonstrates how
scientific principles have been applied in practice, as well as
reflections from leading coaches on how they have incorporated
sport science into their performance programmes.No other book
bridges the gap between theory and applied practice in rugby, from
grass roots to elite international level, and therefore this is
essential reading for any student, researcher, sport science
support officer, coach, physiotherapist or clinician with an
interest in the game.
