The strength training strategy of linear periodization has long been recognized as an efficient system of resistance training. Butuntil nowno one had researched and explored the potential benefits of a nonlinear periodization training program. Authors William Kraemer and Steven Fleck delve into nonlinear, or undulating, periodization to examine how it can result in long-term fitness and performance gains by adding more variety to workouts and optimizing each training session. In doing so, Dr. Kraemer and Dr. Fleck pioneer this newest periodization training technique and have become the leading proponents of this unique training method. Their innovative approach to strength training is shown to facilitate the training process and enhance performance, a fact Dr. Kraemer has demonstrated in several ongoing studies with basketball teams at the University of Connecticut.

This is a reference for strength and conditioning coaches, health and fitness professionals, and personal trainers, as well as athletes and weightlifters. Delve into nonlinear, or undulating periodization, to examine how a systematic and periodic reduction of resistance training intensity can improve performance beyond what is expected with traditional methods. This book defines and explains how nonlinear periodization works and then demonstrates how to create nonlinear periodization training programmes. Readers will learn that by creating different workouts for each day, they can emphasise exclusive training styles in every workout to maximise adaptation as well as provide adequate recovery from the rigors of training stress. Fitness professionals and coaches will discover this unique training style reduces the boredom of using similar workout protocols for two to four weeks at a time and therefore lends itself to creating a more satisfied client base. Written in practical and user-friendly terms, the authors provide the knowledge needed to understand periodization and training principles. No other book on the market will teach how to design, implement and assess a nonlinear workout programme. Retail Price

Optimizing Strength Training: Designing Nonlinear Periodization Workouts explains how nonlinear periodization works and then demonstrates how to create nonlinear periodization training programs, including programs for special populations. Readers will learn that by creating different workouts for each day, they can emphasize exclusive training styles in every workout to maximize adaptation as well as ensure adequate recovery from the rigors of training. Fitness professionals and coaches will discover that this unique training style reduces the boredom encountered when using similar workout protocols for two to four weeks at a time and therefore lends itself to creating a more satisfied client base. Using practical and user-friendly terms, the authors provide the knowledge required forunderstanding nonlinear periodization and training principles, selecting acute program variables, and discerning the practical considerations of nonlinear periodization before undertaking training
