| Synopsis: |
The Science of Gymnastics provides the most comprehensive and accessible introduction available to the fundamental physiological, biomechanical and psychological principles underpinning performance in artistic gymnastics. Fully revised and updated, the second edition introduces two new sections-on motor control, and injury prevention and safety-and features contributions from leading international sport scientists and gymnastics researchers. With case studies and review questions included in each chapter, the book examines every key aspect of gymnastic training and performance, including: * physiological assessment * diet and nutrition * energetics * kinetics and kinematics * spatial orientation and motor control * career transitions * mental skills training and assessment Closing with a cross-disciplinary section on sport science support, the book represents an important link between scientific theory and performance. As such, The Science of Gymnastics is important reading for any student, researcher or coach with an interest in gymnastics, and useful applied reading for any student of sport science or sports coaching. |
