Description   This just released book by Dr. Yessis is the most comprehensive sports training book ever written on what it takes to develop an athlete. It covers technique of the basic skills, the physical qualities needed for sports in general, for specific sports, and how they should be developed. In addition, specific recommendations on nutrition (that have never before been presented to athletes) are given in easy to understand terms. There is also a chapter on the role of vision and vision training. The book is a culmination of over 50 years of working with and teaching athletes how to develop their full potential and be successful in their chosen sport. It is unmatched in not only the book's scope, but in the detail given to each of the factors. Many of the concepts presented are state-of-the-art and have been proven in practice. In fact, the information is based not only on the knowledge available in the U.S. but in the leading sporting nations. This book is of great benefit to coaches, athletes and parents who are working with their youngsters to improve performance. Especially valuable are the chapters dealing with the basic skills of throwing, jumping, hitting, running and kicking. By learning what constitutes effective technique and how it can be taught and/or improved the athletes often improve more than if they only did conditioning work, playing and practicing.
