Product Description
Review
"This book is eminently suitable for those studying 'coaching' at undergraduate level. The logical format with good clear up-to-date referencing at the end of every section makes it an ideal reference book, and it should be provided by sport and physical education departments within colleges and universities."Physiotherapy/Frontline, January 2001
Product Description
In "Coaching Process", the authors demonstrate the importance of applying basic sports science principles to the training process, enhancing performance whilst avoiding common problems. Not only will this book be of interest to practising coaches, but it is also essential reading for those studying sport and exercise science, coaching or coaching science at all levels. The athlete, and those who contribute to the coaching process (sport scientists, team managers, doctors and physiotherapists), will also benefit from reading how the coaching process is best applied to enhance performance and avoid complications of overtraining, injury and burn-out.
