Supertraining by Mel C. Siff.	Supertraining £45	UKSCA Shop (15% discount)
REVIEW Level of Reader: Intermediate to advanced Suitable for accreditation preparation: Yes, but not an ideal starting point for the beginner Content basis: Science Star rating: 5 Quite possibly the most comprehensive book ever written on the science behind strength and conditioning. It has been said before that in training, methods change, principals stay the same – this is the great strength of Supertraining. It is for this reason alone that Mel Siff’s book is a timeless classic. Make no mistake – this is not a book which will drop on your doorstep and be instantly read cover-to-cover. The sheer range and depth of the information within makes this more of a reference than a page-turner. However, the best strength coaches will always evaluate a situation and relate it back to fundamental principles – which is when this book becomes your bible. Bottom line – whenever you think you are pushing the envelope and setting new boundaries, a quick look back in Supertraining will usually remind you that Mel Siff was already doing it before you’d so much as picked up a bar. If you can get hold of copy, grab one today. Review by Mark Jarvis MSc ASCC, Strength & Conditioning Coach, English Institute of Sport
Science and Practice of Strength Training by Zatsiorsky and Kraemer ISBN0736056289	Human Kinetics £33.00	UKSCA Shop (15% discount)
REVIEW Level of Reader: Intermediate to advanced Suitable for accreditation preparation: Yes, but not an ideal starting point for the beginner Content basis: Science Star rating: 4 These two well known and respected authors present a resource that should not disappoint. This text does not spend much time on examples of training exercises or programmes. Instead it focuses heavily on the principles underpinning strength training, which the advanced strength and conditioning coach should understand to be able to fully evaluate their own and other’s strength training practice. With respect to the scientific content there is a strong mechanics focus evident as might be expected from the lead author. However useful information is also present regarding training for specific populations (women, the young and the elderly), and also general programme design issues. This is a very useful resource that most Strength & Conditioning coaches would benefit from reading. It is also presented in a fairly easy to read format and, although a challenge, would not be beyond the intelligent beginner reader. A very useful set of chapter by chapter suggested readings are also presented. Review by Jon Goodwin GSR MSc PGCHE CSCS ASCC, Lecturer, St Mary’s University College
Ultimate Back Fitness and Performance by Stuart McGill	Wabuno Publishers £25.00	UKSCA shop (pre-order now)
REVIEW Level of Reader: Intermediate to advanced Suitable for accreditation preparation: Not directly, but a useful resource once you are confident on the specific content of the accreditation. Content basis: Science and applied Star rating: 4 ½ If as a Strength and Conditioning Coach you haven’t yet worked with an athlete with a back complaint then chances are it’s only a matter of time. In Ultimate Back Fitness and Performance, Stuart McGill, Professor of Spine Biomechanics at the University of Waterloo asserts the criticality of motor control for spinal stability and articulates the principles underlying the development of multidimensional strength. The book is divided into three sections and whilst the titles trigger instant appeal it is the empirical research that provides the evidence upon which to base practice that is essential for all concerned with augmenting performance at the highest levels. Section one, ‘The Scientific Foundation’ requires anatomical and physiological dialogue, with which the ability and willingness to engage will distinguish between the exercise selector and the movement coach. The second section, ‘Individualizing Programs’ applies scientific principles to intrinsic and extrinsic determinates of performance to underpin the validity of programme design, whilst section three reveals the challenges for the spine when ‘Building The Ultimate Performer’. Whether you are about to realise just how little you know, remember having not realised that you had forgotten, or reinforce why you do what you do, you owe it to your athletes to read this book.

Essentials of Strength Training and Conditioning by Baechle and Earle ISBN9780736000895	Human Kinetics £49.00	UKSCA Shop (15% discount)
REVIEW Level of Reader: All levels Suitable for accreditation preparation: Yes, a very useful resource Content basis: Science and applied Star rating: 4 This text represents the core resource for the NSCA Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist accreditation process. As such it represents an attempt to cover all of the ‘essential’ information for those working in this field. It largely achieves this aim with a significant numbers of well known authors contributing chapters across a wide range of scientific and applied areas. Although occasional sections could be better, in the main the quality of the content is high. The book is generally well illustrated and written making it highly accessible to most readers and it serves as both a suitable reference material for most coaches as well as an introductory resource. If you are after a catch all text, although a little expensive, this book may well be for you. Review by Jon Goodwin GSR MSc PGCHE CSCS ASCC, Lecturer, St Mary’s University College
Strength and Conditioning for Games Players by Brewer.	Sports Coach UK	Sports Coach UK click here for link
REVIEW Level of Reader: Beginner to intermediate Suitable for accreditation preparation: Yes, a useful resource for accreditation preparation. Especially relates to the practical elements of the process. Content basis: Applied (plus some science) Star rating: 3 ½ Brewer presents a broad reaching resource, introducing the reader to a wide spectrum of the issues relating to the work of a strength and conditioning coach. In a concise fashion it covers issues relating to the development of endurance, strength, power, speed and flexibility as well as outlining programme design issues and core elements of science that underpin the strength and conditioning process. There is a strong practical focus evident throughout with a reasonably large number of training and exercise examples illustrated, and explanations are generally straightforward and easy to interpret. Although not offering great depth for the more advanced coach, this book offers very useful practical content for many coaches. It also represents great value for money.

Explosive Lifting for Sports by Harvey S. Newton ISBN0736065768	Human Kinetics £15.99 book only £33.99 book and DVD	UKSCA Shop (15% discount)
REVIEW Level of Reader: All levels Suitable for accreditation preparation: Yes, for the weightlifting section Content basis: Applied Star rating: 3 ½ This is a distinctive text in that it deals with the coaching of Olympic lifts from the perspective of a training tool for other activities rather as a sport itself. The book starts by making a case for the inclusion of Olympic lifts within an athletic training regime. It then goes on to describe each of the movements in reasonable detail before offering suitable teaching progressions. Previously there has been a dearth of such information readily available and most texts are aimed at those involved in the sport of competitive weightlifting. The text may be somewhat limited in that it does not provide any information as to how to correct common faults or how to spot limiting factors. The book also deals exclusively with the Olympic lifts and their derivatives rather than acknowledging that there are occasions when less technical “explosive lifts” such as jump squats may be more appropriate. In summary, this is a good resource for anyone developing an interest in strength and conditioning who wishes to gain an insight into the technique and benefits of these key tools.
