Coaching
Review:This is an outstanding book. Coach Boyle delivers a comprehensive plan for injury prevention through sound training. His resume speaks for itself but the aspect of his career that I appreciate the most is his willingness to remain open to change. He's not so proud to change his ways where science and practice reveal a new direction. This is a great strength and conditioning resource. Read more
Review:Little disappointed in lack of instruction of how to properly run. But then again that's not the point of this book. The point is to how to be READY TO RUN and it does a fantastic job of helping you understand how you should prepare Read more
Review:Carl and Anthony's book is an absolute game-changer for those looking for guidance when it comes to improving health and body mechanics.

Review:Great book for even the seasoned runner to gain new tips and info on ultra running. Hal is very detailed in each subject described. Hal's writing style is easy to read with plenty of humor and real life examples thrown in. Read more
Review:I could not decide between this book and the similarly-titled one by Claire Kowalski so I actually went to the bookstore and spent some time flipping through them both. They both seem very good and well-informed, but the Kowalski book is definitely geared more toward beginners (in tone, mostly, but also in content). I am looking to move from beginner to intermediate level running and found that this book fit my needs much better. This one I think is also good for beginners, but the Kowalski b... Read more
Review:Written by maybe the best teacher who ever coached the game.

Love the examples give by, not only the author but many odther great coaches in the game.
I would highly recommend this book for every coach who has and will coach the game in the future. Read more
Review:It was interesting what Matheny said about youth league sports. Although I never stayed in a sport more than one year (until cross country and track in high school), it gave me a different look on how youth sports are managed today. Read more
