Editorial Reviews
Book Description
For the past three decades the University of Nebraska football program has set the standard of excellence for successful conditioning. Complete Conditioning for Football presents the same program the Cornhuskers use to power their way to national championships.
Base, development, peak, and in-season training programs are provided for beginning, intermediate, and advanced players. The book includes 98 position-specific exercises that help players improve speed, agility, power, and endurance. Sample workouts are provided for offensive linemen, defensive linemen, linebackers, running backs, receivers, and defensive backs. Chapters also cover the key training principles of adaptation, specificity, overload, periodization, and proper rest and nutrition.
Fully illustrated, Complete Conditioning for Football takes the latest in strength and conditioning research and turns it into a detailed, practical approach that will help players gain the performance edge.
From the Publisher
“Mike and Bryan have created a book that combines scientific strength and conditioning research with the practical application to show “why” and “how” to train. The Nebraska strength and conditioning program is recognized as the best in the nation. This book explains why.”
Boyd Epley Assistant Athletic Director University of Nebraska
“This is not a weightlifting book but rather a football performance must! Mike is one of the most respected authorities in our profession and has finally put his best thoughts on paper. Everyone regardless of level will get insight not only to practical drills and lifts but also important philosophical considerations.”
Dave Kennedy Head Football Strength and Conditioning Coach The Ohio State University
”Coaches Arthur and Bailey will put you in great shape to excel on the football field. Their training program has proven successful for many years at Nebraska, and has helped me and others maximize our abilities.”
