Synopsis

The body knows no difference between a recognised sport at the olympics or what we do. All it cares about is the two and a half minutes and the months of gruelling training it goes through. All the body wants is to find the right balance between being pushed to a peak without being pushed beyond what it is capable of. Body Before Skill is a brand new reference book for all coaches who want to dig into a deeper understanding of their sport and how to make the most of their athlete's potential. TOPICS COVERED: - Foreword by Debbie Love - Coaching cheerleading as a sport - Cheer coaching development tips - Cheerleading injury & prevention - Skill acquisition & development - Strength & endurance - Speed & power - Cardiovascular fitness - Flexibility for cheerleading - Motor skills development - Nutrition for cheerleading - Sports Psychology for cheerleading - Cheerleading & the human body - Targeted training for cheerleading - Mobility training for cheer skills - Kinesiology basics for cheerleading - How to implement conditioning throughout the season - Developing cheer skills & techniques - Basic biomechanics for cheerleading - Fitness progressions & age adaptations PRAISE FOR THE BOOK “If your passion is to become the best coach you can be this is a must for your library. Please join me in my crusade to motivate athletes internally in a positive environment to become better athletes and people of high character and integrity." DEBBIE LOVE, USASF Hall of Fame "It’s like the bible for cheerleading instruction. It summarizes and applies nearly 4 years of my undergraduate education and then applies is directly to the sport that I love. It's the most comprehensive cheerleading manual that I have seen on the market.” JEFF BENSON, Sports Performance Psychologist "I can't imagine having had access to a program like this when I was a young coach starting out. It can literally cut years off the learning curve. It's THE institute for higher learning for cheerleading coaches. It's cheerleading college.” SHANE MONTGOMERY, Tumbling Director at ICE Allstars
