Running: Biomechanics and Exercise Physiology in Practice

A very resourceful book to learn running and it’s a must for sports physio

This book is a must have for any coach who is bored with the mainstream thinking on speed training. This book is the most exhaustive resource imaginable on every aspect of sprinting and sprint related training. It certainly caters towards the coach who is wishing to be defined by intellect, and you need to take some time reading it, but if you do, you will certainly be rewarded. The lower star reviews are likely from those looking for something a little more readily practical, this is a book that is helpful when you've already been there/done that.

Franz Bosch goes into amazing detail as to the why's and how's of running. He does make some assumptions that are not necessarily built upon solid research but it does provide the coach with food for thought at least!

Excellent read to learn the "whys" of training. While highly technical and often requiring a dictionary to grapple with doctorate level terminology, the insights I have already gained have made the process worthwhile. This is not a book that will provide a training log that you can copy, rather, it breaks down the mechanical and physiological elements that impact running.

As a Track & Field coach the knowledge I gained from reading this is priceless! Recommend to anyone interested in training and coaching athletes.

A very complete book on this subject. Have had great use of it for my own update of the book Strength Speed.

It's an amazing source of information ...I strongly recommend it to every trainer and every athlete , who wants to improve the running technique.

De la mano de Fran Bosch un libro claro y conciso sobre los mecanismos de carrera.

In approfondimento alle tematiche affrontate nel triennio di Scienze Motorie ho deciso di acquistare questo volume. Ne sono soddisfatto per contenuti ed esposizione. Gli unici nei sono secondo me le immagini riportate non proprio in alta qualità in termini di risoluzione e la parte di programmazione dell'allenamento poteva essere affrontata più nel dettaglio. Detto ciò volume interessantissimo e validissimo per approciare in maniera scientifica al tema running in tutte le sue sfaccettature.

Very satisfied with product and delivery very happy

Dense, and absolutely must be read every single year, sometimes multiple times per year. So much new information is gained every read.

El libro llegó en muy mal estado, con los border doblados, la cubierta arañada y algunas paginas dobladas, obviamente no era nuevo. Es bastante caro para vender libros ya utilizados.
