Short description:

Strength Training for Lacrosse will help you create a lacrosse-specific resistance training program to help athletes at each position—defenders, midfielders, attackers, and goalies—develop strength and power that will prepare them for the demands of a game.

Long description:
The game of lacrosse requires athletes to be quick, agile, and powerful. Resistance training contributes significantly to the development of speed, agility, endurance, and strength, ultimately making a lacrosse athlete more formidable on the field.

Developed with the expertise of the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA), Strength Training for Lacrosse provides an overarching biomechanical analysis of lacrosse and specific analyses of the physical demands of each position: defenders, midfielders, attackers, and goalies. Using these analyses, you can design an effective training program that translates to performance on the field. You will also find the following:
  • 10 detailed protocols to test strength, power, speed, agility, and high-intensity endurance capacity
  • 13 total body resistance exercises with 8 variations
  • 16 lower body exercises with 10 variations
  • 29 upper body exercises with 21 variations
  • 20 anatomical core exercises with 19 variations
  • 53 sample programs for off-season, preseason, in-season, and postseason resistance training
For each exercise, you will find a series of photos and a detailed list of primary muscles trained, beginning position and movement phases, breathing guidelines, modifications and variations, and coaching tips. You’ll also gain a deeper understanding of what muscles are involved in each exercise so you can develop a complete and targeted resistance training program.

Backed by the NSCA and the knowledge and experience of individuals who have years of experience as strength and conditioning professionals for lacrosse, Strength Training for Lacrosse is the authoritative resource for creating lacrosse-specific resistance training programs.
