This is the only book JC Santana recommends when it comes to the latest on ultimate back fitness. Get the latest scientific evidence on one of the most controversial topics in fitness: back rehabilitation and training. Dr. McGill is the eminent authority on the biomechanics of the spine. In this text, Dr. McGill provides all of the theory, research, and practical applications the fitness professional needs to make informed decisions on training the spine. Dr. McGill also tackles the tough topics nobody wants to talk about, such as stretching, the use of belts, and the training of the transverse abdominis.
Get the latest scientific evidence on back exercise-what helps and what hurts and why-from a world-renowned authority. Ultimate Back Fitness and Performance provides professionals with the evidence base to design and prescribe the best exercise programs for the back.
A complete description of a 5-stage program is provided. Many examples illustrate each stage within a bad back rehabilitation program together with a performance-enhancement program for athletes.
Beginning with recognizing and repatterning perturbed motor programs and progressing to the enhancement of stability and then endurance, the final stages continue with strength, power, and agility training. Each step is well illustrated and instructive. Added to this are general approaches to assess the demand of individual activities and sports and how to identify the critical components that need specific focus in an individual's back. Dr. McGill's style makes for an easy read of this thorough and rich resource.
New for the second edition:
The recent second edition features an entirely new chapter on transitional training. Many are able to train a foundation for performance but fail to make the transition to specific training. Transition training guidelines are described and the concept of superstiffness is introduced, based on Dr. McGill's recent studies. Tips to employ this effective principle are also described with examples-eliminate energy leaks, conquer sticking points, enhance speed, and achieve ultimate performance. New practical sections include the squat clinic. Typical of Dr. McGill's writings, the guidance is evidence based.
About the Author: Professor McGill's unique approach is based upon years of scientific research into back function of everyone from injured people to elite athletes. His expertise is sought by governments, corporations, professional sports teams, and athletes.
