Sport Exercise and Environmental Physiology, 1e

(This thorough book collates the relationships between exe...)

This thorough book collates the relationships between exercise and the environment into one efficient volume. The aim of this text is to provide a comprehensive coverage of the environmental influences that impact the individual when exercising or competing in sport. The main environmental factors are considered, and the physiological reactions to discrete environmental stresses are described and methods of adaptation or coping are explained. • Evidence-based information and highly respected references dominates the text, lending credibility to the material. • The coverage maintains strong focus throughout, placing constant emphasis on the physics and physiology of the environmental stress. • Helpful information on the impact on the individual doing activity offers other important information, necessary to real-world practice. • The issues of acclimatization are addressed before recommendations, helping practitioners to cope with common issues.

Youth Soccer: From Science to Performance

( As the adult game has increased in popularity, youth so...)

As the adult game has increased in popularity, youth soccer has also seen significant expansion in recent years. The popularity of the youth game is set to continue. Young boy and girl players wish to emulate professional soccer stars and the professional game, often with long-term financial rewards in mind, is increasingly keen to develop young talent. Applied sports science is now a well-established feature of the adult game but the sports science that supports modern football does not translate directly into the youth game. The coaches of young players need specific information about children. Themes explored in this text include: • growth of physiological systems • development of motor and perceptive skills • paediatric environmental physiology • prevention of injury • diet and nutrition • youth fitness and skills training • effective teaching and coaching of juniors • the role of football academies. Youth Soccer: From Science to Performance blends current child-focused sports science theory with youth-specific coaching practice to help create soccer development strategies for children. It promotes knowledge and understanding in all these areas and will further professional expertise amongst coaches who wish to develop the all year round potential of youth soccer players and train the stars of the future.

The Science of Training – Soccer: A Scientific Approach to Developing Strength, Speed and Endurance

( Physical training is a key part of preparing to play so...)

Physical training is a key part of preparing to play soccer (football) at any level, but organising a genuinely effective training programme requires both an understanding the physiological principles involved and a practical knowledge of the demands of the game. This book provides clear guidelines, an evidence base and a theoretical framework for proven effective soccer training. Includes: • planning seasonal training to peak at the right time • training for strength, speed, aerobic and anaerobic fitness • designing appropriate sessions for training and rehabilitation • best methods for recovery from exercise and reducing injury risk • preparation for play in different environmental conditions • evaluating the effectiveness of training programmes • diet, sleep, lifestyle, young players and long-term development. Clear explanations of the physiological concepts and sport science research evidence are given throughout, and the book contains many examples to illustrate the training principles in practice. This is an essential text for students of the game and a valuable resource for coaches, physical trainers and sport scientists working in soccer (football).

Biological Rhythms and Exercise

(The effects of circadian rhythms on human performance in ...)

The effects of circadian rhythms on human performance in general and on response to exercise in particular are a well-known phenomenon. Often after a poor night's sleep or taking a "red-eye" flight into a different time-zone, one just doesn't feel like "themselves." This book aims to provide a comprehensive account of biological rhythms and how they affect exercise. Particular attention is given to sleep, its biological function, and the consequences for exercise performance of sleep loss. There are chapters devoted to the effects of disturbing the circadian body clock, such as when multiple time zones are crossed and jet-lag experienced. The effects of nocturnal shift work and seasonal variation are also covered. The interactions between exercise and the female menstrual cycle are explained and the issue of exercise during pregnancy discussed. Finally, there is a chapter devoted to research methods in chronobiology, the scientific discipline underpinning the content of the book.
