I believe that this book really does fill a gap most texts don't address and I would recommend it without hesitationLes Tumility, Aberystwyth University
This well-written book does an excellent job of sorting through the volumes of information on physiology and sports to provide key concepts necessary in order to maximise performance while minimizing injury and overtraining. * University of Tennessee at Knoxville *
