Blueprint for Success: A Strength and Conditioning Coach's Manual (eBook)
This book will help strength coaches at any level whether youメre a collegiate strength coach, a high school coach in charge of the strength program, or a coach running a training-based business. Blueprint for Success isnメt a workout-based book. There a plenty of those. Blueprint for Success is more like a shopping list. It gives you all the ingredients--hundreds of agility and running drills, exercises, nutritional information, program information, strength material, conditioning information, and speed and coaching philosophies. It has all the essentials necessary for success. The weight room policies and procedures manual section should be a book in itself. It covers everything you need to run your strength program from putting together a staff, evaluating your staff to coaching philosophies, intern materials, rules, regulations and much more. The table of contents says it all.
