Training and Conditioning Young Athletes, Second Edition, by world-renowned exercise scientist Tudor O. Bompa and his colleague Sorin O. Sarandan, provides the blueprint for safely training young athletes to improve performance without hindering overall development and growth.

You’ll find proven science-based training programs for increasing strength, power, speed, agility, flexibility, and endurance. There are also more than 200 resistance training and conditioning exercises for six stages of youth training. These exercises take into account critical factors such as developmental stage, motor function, and sex-specific considerations.

Training and Conditioning Young Athletes, Second Edition, provides clear recommendations about how to reduce the risk of injuries and keep athletes healthy. Practical nutrition advice, including recipes and meal plans, ensures proper fueling for training and competition, while an analysis of the energy systems used in 13 sports offers deeper insight into the programming and long-term training methodology.

The study guide includes learning activities, along with an answer key, to help you prepare for the course exam. Once you complete the course and pass the exam, you can print a certificate for continuing education credits.
