Every Major League Baseball team, most minor league teams, the top 25 ranked college baseball teams, and even some high schools (depending on the level and size) have a full-time strength and conditioning professional on staff. With Strength Training for Baseball, you will gain insights into how amateur to professional baseball players are trained, and you will learn to apply those best practices with your own team to gain a winning advantage. Developed with the expertise of the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA), Strength Training for Baseball explains the value of resistance training for baseball athletes—backed by practical experience, evidence-based training methodologies, and research. The book will help you understand the specific physical demands of each position—pitchers, catchers, middle infielders, corner infielders, center fielders, and corner outfielders—so you can design programs that translate to performance on the field. You will also find the following:  13 detailed protocols to test baseball athletes' strength, power, speed, agility, body composition, and anthropometry. 11 total body resistance exercises with 13 variations. 19 lower body exercises with 29 variations. 28 upper body exercises with 38 variations. 23 anatomical core exercises with 11 variations. 34 sample programs for off-season, preseason, in-season, and postseason resistance training. Each resistance training exercise consists of a series of photos and a detailed list of primary muscles trained, beginning position and movement phases, modifications and variations, and coaching tips to guide you in selecting the right exercises for your team. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 666g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 178 x 255 x 23 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781492598251\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44098694906106,"sku":"9781492598251","price":21.65,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/68a8ed6515d2a83e1a7305181e69d46b.jpg?v=1633490973","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/strength-training-for-baseball","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
