Description
Book Synopsis: The benefits of strength training for youth are clearly documented. Yet teachers, fitness instructors, and youth coaches are often not sure how to proceed, and they end up watering down adult versions of strength-training programs. That is definitely not the way to go. But authors Avery Faigenbaum and Wayne Westcott, with their 50 years of combined experience in teaching youth strength-training classes and coaching, can tell you the way to go—and back it with the most current research on instructional techniques and program design for youth. The authors guide you in designing efficient, enjoyable, productive, and practical programs for kids ages 7 to 18 and of varying abilities. You will focus first on broad-based, balanced muscle development and then move into comprehensive, sport-specific, and age-specific strength-training programs. In addition, Youth Strength Training will teach you productive protocols for warming up, cooling down, and enhancing joint flexibility; proper exercise technique for 111 resistance exercises using weight stack machines, free weights, medicine balls, elastic bands, and body-weight resistance; how to incorporate periodization and long-term planning; and how to provide effective instruction to youth. Youth Strength Training is the definitive source to guide you in designing and overseeing the programs of the kids you work with, whether you’re in a school, fitness center, or home setting. If you want to see high rates of strength development with few overuse injuries, rely on Youth Strength Training.
