The use of athlete and team training and performance monitoring
systems has grown due to technology advances. Practitioners who
work with athletes from high school to elite levels in a range of
sports use these systems to observe athlete data, including
exercise intensity, athletic fitness, and body responses.
Monitoring Training and Performance in Athletes is a compilation of
evidence-based guidelines and best practices of athlete monitoring
for practitioners, who are increasingly being asked to implement
monitoring systems and to collect, analyze, and interpret data that
ultimately result in training adjustments to optimize performance.
Author Mike McGuigan, an award-winning sport scientist, blends
research-based concepts with practical application strategies of
monitoring training and performance in athletes. The content
highlights what can be monitored, such as body stress, biochemical
markers, and hormonal response; discusses reliability of modern
methods, such as wearable technology and questionnaires; and helps
readers understand how to interpret data to modify training
programs in real time. Readers will find guidelines, approaches,
and solutions for challenges in athlete monitoring for individual
and team sports as well as suggestions for integrating monitoring
with coaching. Numerous sidebars in the text provide real-world
examples and application of the content to assist readers in
understanding concepts and the cutting-edge, evidence-based
research on athlete monitoring. Additionally, the full-color
illustrations and photographs provide a visual interpretation of
the information presented. With broad international appeal, this
text outlines the most pertinent evidence-based research concepts
and studies on athlete monitoring. Strength and conditioning,
athletic training, and personal training professionals who work
with athletes and monitor training programs will find Monitoring
Training and Performance in Athletes an invaluable guide in
managing monitoring systems and making adjustments in training
programs based on the data to help athletes and teams achieve peak
performance.
