Injury Prevention and Rehabilitation in Sport examines the key
factors at play in the reduction and prevention of injury to
athletes at all levels of sport. The book combines the latest
scientific research with a critical review of current literature
and the author's own personal experience working in the field of
strength and conditioning at elite level to explain why certain
modalities should or should not be prescribed by strength and
conditioning coaches. There are full colour sequenced photographs
showing the correct techniques for a wide variety of essential
strength exercises. Other topics covered include how to effectively
manage recovery and avoid overtraining; techniques for range of
movement and corrective exercise; the most effective methods for
shoulder and trunk stability; the theory and practice of
propioception and plyometrics and how they can improve performance;
the different methods employed when working with female or maturing
athletes and the physiological impact of factors such as sleep
patterns, travel, climate and illness on performance. The book
concludes with a series of case studies that illustrate how to put
theory into practice.
