Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Baseball programs at all levels recognize the competitive edge that
can be gained by their athletes through targeted resistance
training programs. Every Major League Baseball team, most minor
league teams, the top 25 ranked college baseball teams, and even
some high schools (depending on the level and size) have a
full-time strength and conditioning professional on staff. With
Strength Training for Baseball, you will gain insights into to how
amateur to professional baseball players are trained, and you will
learn to apply those best practices with your own team to gain a
winning advantage. Developed with the expertise of the National
Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA), Strength Training for
Baseball explains the value of resistance training for baseball
athletes-backed by practical experience, evidence-based training
methodologies, and research. The book will help you understand the
specific physical demands of each position-pitchers, catchers,
middle infielders, corner infielders, center fielders, and corner
outfielders-so you can design program that translate to performance
on the field. You will also find the following: 13 detailed
protocols to test baseball athletes' strength, power, speed,
agility, body composition, and anthropometry 11 total body
resistance exercises with 13 variations 19 lower body exercises
with 29 variations 28 upper body exercises with 38 variations 23
anatomical core exercises with 11 variations 34 sample programs for
off-season, preseason, in-season, and postseason resistance
training Each resistance training exercise consists of a series of
photos and a detailed list of primary muscles trained, beginning
position and movement phases, modifications and variations, and
coaching tips to guide you in selecting the right exercises for a
program. You'll also learn how to structure those programs based on
the goals and length of each season and for each position. Backed
by the NSCA and the knowledge and experience of successful high
school, college, and professional baseball strength and
conditioning professionals, Strength Training for Baseball is the
authoritative resource for creating baseball-specific resistance
training programs to help your athletes optimize their strength and
successfully transfer that strength and power to the baseball

The purpose of this text is to use existing scientific information
from previous space flights, space medicine, exercise physiology
and sports medicine to prepare a physical fitness manual suitable
for use by members of the NASA astronaut population. With the
possibility of repeated flights and numerous, diverse, in-flight
tasks, the time available for pre-flight conditioning must be
utilized as effectively as possible. For the first time, crew
members will come from diverse backgrounds and interests. The
objective of this text is to provide a variety of scientifically
valid exercise programs/activities suitable for the development of
physical fitness.An attempt has been made to present programs,
activities and supportive scientific data in a concise, easy to
read format so as to permit the user to select his or her mode of
training with confidence and devote time previously spent
experimenting with training routines to preparation for space
flight. The programs and activities included in this text have been
tested and shown to be effective and enjoyable.
