In every sport, there are athletes who represent true technical
excellence. Their movement seems effortless and efficient: they
create and control forces in the most effective way. Functional
force management, the foundation for effective sporting movement
and injury resistance, results from the integration of stability,
mobility, coordination and balance. These elements combine to
prevent the physical restrictions, imbalances and inefficient
muscle recruitment patterns which can block athletes from meeting
their movement goals. The right muscles firing at the right time
and in the right sequence can enable athletes to achieve their full
physical potential. Full of colour photographs and images to
illustrate the techniques and theories involved, Stability, Sport,
and Performance Movement introduces functional stability principles
as they apply to sporting movement. A comprehensive chapter on
movement testing is followed with four chapters of integrated
exercise techniques, which clearly demonstrate form and progression
from early activation through to higher-level neuromuscular
drills.Programmes and clinical examples help the reader to
appreciate the application of this approach across a variety of
sports. It is an approach that has been used with
international-level athletes in disciplines as diverse as swimming,
badminton, gymnastics, karate, cycling, weight lifting, basketball,
athletics, snow sports, football, golf, equestrian sports, and
tennis. Effective movement starts with great foundations, and these
are applicable and relevant across all age groups and ability
levels, from beginners through to veterans.
