In Developing Agility and Quickness, leading experts from the NSCA offer more than 130 drills, 12 agility and quickness tests, and 15 sport-specific training plans to help athletes gain a step on the competition.
The ball handler who fakes and then drives past a defender for an easy score. A pass rusher who leaves a would-be blocker in his wake on the way to sacking the quarterback. A setter who manages to maneuver both body and ball in the blink of an eye to make the perfect pass for the kill and match-winning point. These are all reasons agility and quickness are such prized physical attributes in modern sport. Efforts to become markedly quicker or more agile, however, aren’t always successful. Genetic limitations, technical deficiencies, and inferior training activities are among the major obstacles. Developing Agility and Quickness helps athletes blow past those barriers thanks to the top sport conditioning authority in the world, the National Strength and Conditioning Association. NSCA hand-picked its top experts to present the best training advice, drills, and programs for optimizing athletes’ linear and lateral movements. Make Developing Agility and Quickness a key part of your conditioning program, and get a step ahead of the competition.

Há inúmeras razões que justificam o fato de a agilidade e a velocidade serem atributos físicos indispensáveis no esporte moderno. Por exemplo, no futebol, quando o atacante finge o passe para atravessar a linha de defesa e marca o gol. Ou quando o meio-campista consegue deixar o bloqueio para trás e passar a bola para o centro-avante. A diferença entre vitória e derrota pode depender de poucos segundos. Com esse enfoque, esta obra foi desenvolvida pela National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA), organização líder mundial em condicionamento físico, para tornar-se referência em programas de treinamento de agilidade e velocidade para os atletas. O livro fornece a treinadores, instrutores, atletas de todos os níveis, estudantes e profissionais de educação física e esportes informações preciosas de treinamento e orientações para elevar o nível de desempenho.
