- Synopsis
- Offers a collection of exercises and key aerobic and strength training concepts incorporating functional strength and balance training. Explores how each region of the body works and describes conventional and functional exercises to improve fitness and activity performance for specific sports. Most of the 155 exercises are illustrated with photos of male and female athletes. For easy cross-reference, exercises are numbered consecutively throughout and are coded by symbols identifying the sports to which they apply. Includes a section on basic principles such as nutrition and stretching, and covers special issues for women. A chapter on body posture and movement patterns incorporates the Aston-Patterning approach. Musnick is a sports medicine physician in Seattle, WA. Pierce is an athletic trainer in Bellevue, WA.
