Abstract
This book is officially certified by World Athletics (WA) and is the most comprehensive guide on track & field currently available. Track & Field outlines in detail the cross-disciplinary aspects of training and presents the information as small training theory, which enhances understanding of the special training and movement theory of the various disciplines also presented. Introduced in this book are the basics of training theory, such as main motor stress forms; adaptation and performance; training control; training methods; and general training concepts. The comprehensive training content also includes 96 games and exercises for coordination, flexibility, and strength development. The book goes even further than training method by presenting comparisons of different disciplines, history of training, competition rules, phase structure, and technique, all backed by sports science. It is a textbook for all athletes, coaches, trainers, and sports students and teachers from youth athletics to high-performance training. Also included is a foreword by WA president, Sebastian Coe.
