Developing Sport-Specific Strength examines why and how coaches should train their athletes in a sport-specific manner. The DVD details why coaches should be concerned about whether an athlete is strong enough for a particular sport and why it is important to know the difference between “slow†strength and “fast†strength. The DVD also reviews why it is necessary to focus an athlete's strength-training regimen on enhancing the individual's ability to generate a lot of force within a relatively short amount of time.
