Developing Sport Specific Strength DVD

Workout Videos Presents: Developing Sport-Specific Strength Workout DVD - Developing Sport-Specific Strength examines why and how coaches should train their athletes in a sport-specific manner. The DVD details why coaches should be concerned about whether an athlete is strong enough for a  particular sport and why it is important to know the difference between “slow” strength and “fast” strength. The DVD also reviews why it is necessary to focus an athlete’s strength-training regimen on enhancing the individual’s ability to generate a lot of force within a relatively short amount of time. Among the topics covered: defining sport-specific strength, load velocity curve, stretch-shortening cycle, speed of movement, and eccentric, concentric, isometric.
