Becoming  an effective strength and conditioning practitioner requires the  development of a professional skills set and a thorough understanding of  the scientific basis of best practice. Aimed at advanced students and  novice-to-expert practitioners, in this book the authors explore the  latest scientific evidence and apply it to exercise selection and  programming choices across the full range of areas in strength and  conditioning, from strength and power, speed and agility, to aerobic  conditioning. Since the first edition of this text was written extensive  research has expanded the supporting evidence base that provides the  theoretical foundation for each chapter. In addition, some areas that  were previously under-researched have now been expanded and some key  concepts have been further challenged. Each chapter is written by  experts with experience in a wide variety of sports, including both  applied and research experience, ensuring this concise but sophisticated  textbook is the perfect bridge from introductory study to effective  professional practice. 

While advanced concepts are  explored within the book, the coach must not forget that consistency in  the application of the basic principles of strength and conditioning is  the foundation of athletic development. Advanced Strength and Conditioning: An Evidence- based Approach is a valuable resource for all advanced students and practitioners of strength and conditioning and fitness training.
