How well you jump and how powerfully you punch, pull, or throw depends on your explosive power, on your special endurance for explosive movements, and on your speed, coordination, and flexibility. Explosive Strength and Jumping Ability for All Sports tells you how to develop each of these abilities. You will learn all there is to know about developing explosive power and jumping ability.
  • How to prepare for intensive plyometric exercises
  • What are the right loads for you in a workout
  • What are the right loads for you in a yearly training cycle
  • How to prevent injuries to your ankles, knees, and arms
  • Ready-made progressions of exercises for 32 major sports, starting with badminton and ending with wrestling.

This book gathers the very latest research from a top-notch coach and a world-recognized theoretician who has made it his life's work to systematize existing knowledge about training for sport-specific forms of explosive power or jumping ability.

Tadeusz Starzynski was an outstanding coach, and a world authority on training for jumps. Athletes coached by him have won two Olympic gold medals, two gold medals at European Championships, and several times won national championships and set national records. He was especially known for his works on triple jump and the methodology of training for jumps and his more than 150 publications were translated to fourteen languages and published in 30 countries.

Henryk Sozanski, Ph.D., a track-and field coach, is now a professor and a president of AWF (University School of Physical Education) in Warsaw, Poland. He specializes in problems of training—including the role of jumping ability in athletes' fitness preparation. He has directed research on training loads and their optimization and is the author of more than 300 works concerning the theory of sports training.

“As a world class and Olympic level coach of Dwight Stones, James Butts, Dan Ripley and others, may I encourage you to use these wonderful concepts that Tadeusz has given. These principles will work very well with our `Aerobic Resistive
Rebounding' concept found in the `Olympic Trainer' book available on Amazon.com.
Give these concepts a try and you will become a champion!”
Harry Sneider, Ph.D., Arcadia, California, www.DrFit.net
