Weight Training for All Young Athletes,
By G. Hardy (AL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Youth Strength and Conditioning (Spalding Sports Library) (Paperback)
I bought this book to help my oldest son with weight training when he was about 13 years old. I found it to be an excellent source of information on warmup, stretching and of course the resistance exercises for young people. I like the concise format. The focus of the book is for all young athletes to increase strength and condition themselves; it's not just a weightlifting book. Increasing strength and conditioning should help the youth be a better athlete, and hopefully help reduce injuries. Even so, it may be used as a weight training text for the one whose preferred sport is weight lifting. There are detailed descriptions and photographs of the stretches and exercises. Explanations are given for free weights and cable exercises where both apply. The photographs include both boys and girls performing exercises. Both sexes can benefit. Sample routines are provided, as well as explanations of how to plan a training program. Be sure to read the questions and answers section. It is very informative, also. The book cover indicates it is for parents and players, but it could even be useful for a coach.
