Supertraining – Strength Training For Sporting Excellence
This is what has been said about this best-selling strength training book which is already owned by many of the world’s top sports coaches and personal trainers:
“This is a book that has no equal! Nor is there a book that is even comparable to the extent and depth of the information presented. Supertraining belongs in the library of every athlete, coach, researcher, sports medicine doctor, trainer, and physical education and sports teacher. In essence, anyone who deals with an athlete should have a copy of this book.”
Dr Michael Yessis, expert on kinesiology and Russian training, and writer for numerous fitness publications, in this book review for The Fitness & Sports Review International 1994.
This latest, vastly expanded edition of Supertraining is now an even more exciting system of strength training for producing excellence in all sports. Supertraining is really several books in one. It combines methods developed by generations of Olympic weightlifters, powerlifters, bodybuilders, physical therapists and sports scientists, with many of the so-called secrets which turned the former Soviet Union into the greatest sporting machine known and also produced many of the world’s greatest Western athletes. Supertraining draws on extensive biomechanical and physiological research to offer invaluable information on all aspects of strength training, including:
• explosive strength, power and speed training
• plyometrics and powermetrics
• periodisation and program design for all sports
• bodybuilding, powerlifting and weightlifting methods
• maximal strength, acceleration-strength and strength endurance
• flexibility, stretching and PNF methods
• complex training combining different training regimes
• restoration and supercompensation
• electrostimulation training
• circuit training and hybrid exercises
This highly sought-after book is a major contribution to the science and art of strength training and rehabilitative conditioning.
