5.0 out of 5 stars THIS IS SUCH A GOOD BOOK, 2 Jan 2001

By A Customer

From the outset, this book defines and explains, with reference to diagrams, photographs and scientific authority, the world of plyometrics.If you are interested in improving your explosive speed, simply follow the twelve week programme contained within and you will soon see the results. Almost every sport is catered for with specific programmes for each one. The author writes in a coherent, simple and concise manner which made understanding the subject matter easy. Overall this is a very good book with good photographic illustrations of each exercise and drill accompanied with an authoritative text on the benifits and risks of following such a programme. Outstanding!

5.0 out of 5 stars Covers nearly everything!, 22 Jan 2004

By	"mark_raynsford" - See all my reviews

Excellent book. Has got plenty of exercises, with step by step descriptions. Definately worth buying if you want to work with Plyometrics or teaching it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Oh dear, 19 Jun 2009

By	J. Murray - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Reads like it was written by a teenager who's stolen a medical text book he doesn't understand in order to finish a biology project in a hurry. As if that wasn't bad enough it's poorly edited and is full of typo's and random cyrillic characters.

I only give it two stars because of the exercise ideas, there has to be a better book on the subject somewhere?
