The game of football is one of the most popular in the world and is followed by millions of spectators on all continents. In recent years, football has undergone technical, tactical and physical evolution, whereby players are subjected to ever higher physical stimuli. To be properly prepared, strength and conditioning coaches must use the most advanced scientific evidence to help inform decision‑making regarding conditioning their players.
Strength and Conditioning for Football: From Science to Practice summarizes the current scientific evidence in the field for the sport. This evidence serves as a rationale for the decisions practitioners make with their football players to monitor and develop training programs that will help drive improvements in the relevant physical capacities for the game. This new book develops important arguments in football training with chapters examining such questions as (1) game model and training, (2) monitoring and testing, (3) recovery and match preparation and (4) youth and disability in football.
This book offers critical information to readers aiming to succeed as strength and conditioning coaches in football, and it will be required reading for students and practitioners alike in the fields of football, strength and conditioning, coaching, physiotherapy and sport science.
