It is an essential skill for any strength and conditioning coach to
be able to reliably assess the physical performance of their
athletes and communicate the results and their implications to
performers and coaches, alike. Performance Assessment in Strength
and Conditioning is the first textbook to clearly and coherently
suggest the most appropriate and reliable methods for assessing and
monitoring athletes' performance, as well as including detailed
sections on testing considerations and the interpretation and
application of results. The book explores the full range of
considerations required to reliably assess performance, including
questions of ethics and safety, reliability and validity, and
standardised testing, before going on to recommend (through a
comparison of field- and laboratory-based techniques) the optimal
methods for testing all aspects of physical performance, including:
injury risk jump performance sprint performance change of direction
and agility strength power aerobic performance body composition
Closing with a section on interpreting, presenting and applying
results to practice, and illustrated with real-life case study data
throughout, Performance Assessment in Strength and Conditioning
offers the most useful guide to monitoring athlete performance
available. It is an essential text for upper-level strength and
conditioning students and practitioners alike.
