  • Physical preparation for competition, coaching and training strategies

  • Skill acquisition, talent identification and development

  • Nutrition and lifestyle of judoka

  • Performance analysis and biomechanics

  • Injury epidemiology and prevention

  • Special considerations for female and young judoka

Clearly written and accessible, The Science of Judo provides upper-level students and researchers, and coaches and sport science staff working with judoka, with the most thorough and authoritative reference on sport science applied to judo currently available.
