SPORTS AND EXERCISE SCIENCE

Biomechanical Basis of Human Movement, 4th Edition 
 Joseph Hamill, Kathleen Knutzen and Timothy Derrick

Essentials of Exercise Physiology, 5th Edition William McArdle, Frank Katch and Victor Katch

Focusing on the quantitative nature of biomechanics, Biomechanical Basis of Movement , the 4th edition integrates current literature, meaningful numerical examples, relevant applications, hands-on exercises, and functional anatomy, physics, calculus, and physiology to help students—regardless of their mathematical background— understand the full continuum of human movement potential. This 4th Edition features a new problem generator for instructors, which randomly generates an unlimited number of numerical problems for student practice, and free MaxTRAQ motion analysis software that shows biomechanics in action and allows students to track data and analyze motion in a dynamic, video-enriched online environment.

Essentials of Exercise Physiology offers a compact version of the 8th Edition of the bestselling Exercise Physiology: Nutrition, Energy, and Human Performance, making it ideal for introductory undergraduate courses. As students progress through the text, they’ll develop a deep understanding of the interrelationships among energy intake, energy transfer during exercise, and the physiologic systems that support energy transfer. Moreover, they’ll discover how to apply what is learnt to enhance exercise training, athletic performance, and health.

Sports and Exercise Nutrition, 5th Edition William McArdle, Frank Katch and Victor Katch

Motor Behavior, 2nd Edition Jeffrey Ives

This edition of McArdle, Katch, and Katch’s respected text reflects the most recent, evidence-based information on how nutrition affects exercise and sports performance. Using high quality research to illustrate teaching points, the authors provide detailed yet accessible coverage of the science of exercise nutrition and bioenergetics, along with valuable insights into how the principles work in the real world of physical activity and sports medicine. New content, new research citations, and new case studies throughout help prepare students for a successful career in exercise science.

This updated 2nd Edition of this highly applied text goes beyond providing the basics of motor control (Unit 1) and motor learning (Unit 2) to helping students understand how these two distinct views interact and ultimately affect outcomes (Unit 3). Taking a functional approach, Motor Behavior, 2nd Edition reflects the most recent research and guidelines from the field and brings topics to life with unique photos and illustrations that show concepts in action. A final chapter offers insights on effective training and practice strategies that connect mind and body for optimal performance.

Exercise Physiology: Energy, Nutrition and Human Performance, 8th Edition William McArdle, Frank Katch and Victor Katch

Foundations of Athletic Training: Prevention, Assessment, and Management, 6th Edition Marcia Anderson

Setting the standard for more than 30 years, Exercise Physiology has helped more than 350,000 students build a solid foundation in the scientific principles underlying modern exercise physiology. This Eighth Edition is updated with the latest research in the field to give students easy-to-understand, up-to-date coverage of how nutrition, energy transfer, and exercise training affect human performance. Throughout the text, the authors apply exercise physiology principles to practical skills, illustrate how theory comes to life through research, and clarify complex issues and problems.

Foundations of Athletic Training integrates basic medical concepts and related scientific information to provide a strong foundation of general athletic training practices. Using a problem-solving approach to prevention, recognition, assessment, management, and disposition of sports-related injuries and diseases, this text provides athletic trainers and athletic training students with the most extensive, challenging content in a user-friendly format.
