Sport and Exercise Science provides the best single-volume introduction to the core pillars of sport science—physiology, biomechanics and psychology—currently available.
This third edition introduces the central principles of each discipline and features updated chapters on energy balance, the psychology of motor learning, and a new chapter on applied psychology and performance. The book also contains a cross-disciplinary section on research methods which explores case studies and introduces performance analysis, talent ID and applied sports nutrition.
This is an essential companion for students studying the introductory modules on a sport and exercise science degree or foundation course.
