Backed by the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and coauthored by three leading authorities in pediatric exercise science, this cutting-edge book is built around the modern understanding that youth are not simply smaller versions of adults but are instead a special population with their own specific needs. You’ll understand the scientific theories behind youth training as well as how to apply them to help design effective programs that maximize creativity, engagement, and fun.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe text is broken into three parts to systematically bridge the gap between science and practice. Part I lays the groundwork for understanding fundamental concepts of pediatric exercise science, including physiology, growth and maturation, long-term athletic development, and pedagogical strategies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart II is devoted to the assessment of youth development of fitness components, including motor skill, strength and power, speed and agility, and aerobic and anerobic fitness. This practical section demonstrates the impact of factors specific to youth on fitness, and it will teach you how to design integrative training programs to meet the needs of youth of varying abilities and different stages of development. Sample training sessions with accompanying exercise photos within each chapter offer clear visual guidelines for implementing exercises correctly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart III delves into modern-day topics specific to the youth population, including participation in organized sports and injury concerns; overweight and obese youth; those diagnosed with clinical conditions such as diabetes, asthma, and physical and mental disabilities; and the role of nutrition in healthy lifestyle habits.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLearning aids throughout the book enhance comprehension and enable you to quickly locate important information. Chapter objectives and key terms reinforce learning, while Teaching Tip boxes contextualize important themes, and Do You Know? boxes illustrate practical application of the content.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter reading the ebook, certified professionals can take the companion CE exam to earn continuing education credits.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLearning Objectives\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplain the long-term effects of physical inactivity on disease risk.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduce physical activity recommendations from infancy through adolescence.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescribe how biological and physiological systems develop during childhood and adolescence.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplain the differences between skeletal, sexual, and somatic maturation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCritically analyze the benefits and limitations of existing talent and athletic developmental models for youth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvaluate test batteries for assessing physical fitness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvide an overview of dynamic warm-up procedures for children and adolescents.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDefine the classifications of motor skills.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign strength and power training programs for children and adolescents.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDefine classifications of speed and agility.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscuss the determinants of aerobic and anaerobic fitness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDistinguish the hierarchical order of multilevel programming.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescribe the risks associated with excessive training in young athletes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplain the benefits of aerobic, resistance, and combined exercise training for youth who are overweight or obese.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescribe appropriate exercise training strategies for youth with clinical conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscuss the roles of nutrition and energy balance in supporting growth, maturation, and a healthy lifestyle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAudience\u003c\/h4\u003eCertified fitness professionals, personal trainers, and strength and conditioning coaches working with young athletes and clients.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c!--end tabDescription--\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"tab-tableofcontents\" class=\"tab-content\"\u003e \u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I.

He fulfilled the standard for a Master of Sports of Russia in sambo wrestling, earned a diploma as a specialist in physical education and sports, and in 2006 defended his thesis to earn a master of physical education and sports degree. While studying for his master’s degree, he studied under the guidance of the prominent Russian scientist and academician Lev Pavlovich Matveev, who instilled in him a love of science and gave real understanding of the essence of physical education and sports.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSince 2006 he has been working as a personal sambo and strength and conditioning coach with amateurs and with professional athletes.

As a public speaker, Boyce uses his skills to deliver lectures, workshops, and seminars around North America and abroad, sharing innovative troubleshooting guidelines and unique perspectives for trainers looking to improve professionally. As a part-time college professor at Toronto's Humber College, he encourages critical thinking and a departure from the confines of one-size-fits-all, rule-based exercise science advice.
