Description x, 413 pages : illustrations ; 28 cm Contents 1. Anatomy of the locomotor apparatus and basic principles of motion -- 2. Generation of energy -- 3. Running techniques -- 4. Training and adaptation -- 5. Running techniques in practice -- 6. Strength training for runners Summary This richly illustrated work presents innovative training concepts based on recent scientific research and extensive knowledge of the real-world training. It provides running trainers, physiotherapists and physical exercise teachers with the latest insights into the training runners. The methods presented here are based on biomechanical principles. Scientific material is translated into practical techniques in the discussion of topics such as running technique, energy supply processes and adaptation through training · Unique approach to the material makes this book an excellent resource for a beginner's introduction or an advanced trainer's review · Coverage features the most up-to-date information available · Logical organization of information makes the text easy to use Notes Formerly CIP.
