readers the core concepts in a practical, easy to understand style,
separated into four sections. Part I explains the fundamentals of
effective coaching including the development of coaching
philosophies, best practices for coaching effectively, how athletic
technique matures, and what coaches can and cannot do in specific
health-related situations. Part II provides practical ways to
improve athletic performance where readers learn the fundamentals
of biomechanics and how to use technology to analyze performance,
the physiological functions and adaptations to exercise, how the
body can be physically trained and properly fueled, and mental
strategies to optimize athletic outcomes. Part III introduces the
business side of coaching, the important responsibilities involved
in sport management, and practical methods for marketing as well as
working with the media. Last, Part IV offers specific strategies
for coaching across age and skill levels. Chapters are split into
youth and high school, collegiate, and professional athletes, and
the nuances of coaching each level are explained. Being called
"Coach" is an honor, but with this title comes the responsibility
of being professional, knowledgeable, and effective. Coaching for
Sports Performance provides the platform for becoming a successful
coach and assisting athletes in achieving their potential. Coaching
