"New Content Based upon feedback from past students and Sports Performance Professionals, this new textbook includes several new updates in comparison to the previous performance enhancement materials: 1. Streamlined OPTTM Model--The OPTTM model has been simplified to include six of the most commonly used phases of training for sports performance goals, versus the previous seven-phase model. The one phase of training that is no longer included in this performance version of the model, Corrective Exercise Training, is a specialized form of training that would be used for athletes who've come off an injury and prepares the athlete to enter into the OPTTM model. This form of training is covered exclusively in NASM's Corrective Exercise Specialist course. 2. Revised Model Nomenclature--We've also renamed the phases so it is easier to understand the exact function and desired adaptation for that phase of training. 3. Additional Chapters--This textbook includes several new chapters not included in the previous performance enhancement materials. These additional chapter topics will assist in creating a more well-rounded Sports Performance Professional and thus in creating more value in you as a professional. These additional chapters include: ? Cardiorespiratory Training for Performance Enhancement ? Olympic Lifting for Performance Enhancement ? Current Concepts in Injury Prevention and Reconditioning ? Ergogenic Aids ? Sports Psychology"--

NASM Essentials of Corrective Exercise Training introduces the health and fitness professional to NASM's proprietary Corrective Exercise Continuum, a system of training that uses corrective exercise strategies to help improve muscle imbalances and movement efficiency to decrease the risk of injury. This textbook includes several new chapters that were not included in NASM's previous corrective exercise materials, including the rationale for corrective exercise training, assessments of health risk, static postural assessments, range of motion assessments, and strength assessments (manual muscle testing) as well as corrective exercise strategies for the cervical spine, elbow, and wrist. There are more than 100 corrective exercise techniques in the categories of self-myofascial release, static stretching, neuromuscular stretching, isolated strength training, positional isometrics, and integrated dynamic movements included in the text. These, along with corrective exercise strategies for common movement impairments seen in each segment of the body, make this text the premier resource for learning and applying NASM's systematic approach to corrective exercise training.
