......Young superstar athletes have dispelled
long-standing misconceptions that strength
development should start in the late teens.
But much discussion has continued regarding
what type of training is most beneficial.

......Strength Training for Young Athletes
provides all the answers as the authoritative
guide to strength development for 7- to
18-year-old athletes. World-renowned strength
and conditioning experts William Kraemer and
Steven Fleck present the latest facts on the
effects of strength training on growth,
development, and performance. The authors
then make recommendations relative to starting
age, choice of exercises, frequency of training,
rate of progression, and philosophical aspects
of program design.

......Learn how to individualize the
age-appropriate sample training programs
provided, based on the athlete’s physical,
psychological, and emotional maturity as well
as the demands of the sport. Such carefully
designed programs not only improve athletic
performance and prepare young athletes for
higher competitive levels, but they also help
to decrease the incidence of injury along the
way.

......Strength Training for Young Athletes
is the most complete and credible resource
for developing the muscular foundation for
athletic success.
