The ball handler who fakes and then drives past a defender for an
easy score. A pass rusher who leaves a would-be blocker in his wake
on the way to sacking the quarterback. A setter who manages to
maneuver both body and ball in the blink of an eye to make the
perfect pass for the kill and match-winning point. These are all
reasons agility and quickness are such prized physical attributes
in modern sport. Efforts to become markedly quicker or more agile,
however, aren’t always successful. Genetic limitations, technical
deficiencies, and inferior training activities are among the major
obstacles. Developing Agility and Quickness helps athletes blow
past those barriers thanks to the top sport conditioning authority
in the world, the National Strength and Conditioning Association.
NSCA hand-picked its top experts to present the best training
advice, drills, and programs for optimizing athletes’ linear and
lateral movements. Make Developing Agility and Quickness a key part
of your conditioning program, and get a step ahead of the
competition. Earn continuing education credits/units! A continuing
education course and exam that uses this book is also available. It
may be purchased separately or as part of a package that includes
all the course materials and exam.
