A practical and comprehensive guide for teachers, coaches and parents which will help them to develop suitable, safe and effective training programmes for the child. There are major differences between the anatomy and physiology of adults and children involved in training for health and sport but, traditionally, parents, coaches and teachers have treated children as miniature adults when devising training and exercise schedules.

Very Good. The latest information and advice about exercise and fitness for young athletes is provided in this practical guide for teachers, coaches, and parents. The book emphasizes the importance of training and the health benefits of exercise for the young, while advising on precautionary measures to avoid injury. Topics covered include young athletes' particular vulnerability to injury, poor nutrition, inadequate recovery, and poor training habits despite a natural enthusiasm for being involved in sports and play. Dispelling the belief that children are miniature adults, this guide enables adults to make informed decisions and implement suitable, safe, and effective training programs that recognize the differences between the anatomy and physiology of adults and children.
