This package includes the following:
  • High-Powered Plyometrics, Third Edition, ebook
  • Online continuing education exam
Help athletes cultivate strength, power, and speed for better athletic performance! High-Powered Plyometrics, Third Edition, provides the most systematic, comprehensive, and practical approach to explosive power training available.

In this third edition, James Radcliffe—head strength and conditioning coach at University of Oregon—applies over 50 years of research and experience to create a hands-on guide that explores the principles of high-intensity plyometric training, power assessments, and the development of long- and short-term conditioning programs. You’ll find detailed photo sequences, step-by-step instructions and coaching cues, and intensity guidelines to ensure correct technique for 85 exercises that increase power in the core, upper body, and lower body.

The third edition has been expanded to include over 90 preparatory exercises for power activation within a warmup and a new chapter on advanced methods of explosive power training. In addition, it offers more detailed guidance on assessments and how the results should shape programming.

You will also have access to six sample programs tailored to specific sports: football, basketball, track and field, volleyball, and more.

Go beyond basic conditioning and develop explosive power that provides an edge over the competition.

After reading the ebook, certified professionals can take the companion CE exam to earn continuing education credits.
