Athletic
Taping and Bracing - 2nd Edition
by David Perrin
Paperback from Human Kinetics
ISBN: 0736048111
Completely overhauled and updated, Athletic Taping and Bracing, Second
Edition, is a leading text in its field. Like the popular first edition,
it continues to integrate the science of anatomy and injury mechanisms
with the practice of athletic taping and bracing. The new edition is updated
to reflect changes in the National Athletic Trainers' Association (NATA)
Education Council's "Competencies in Athletic Training" and the fourth
edition of the NATA Board of Certification's "Role Delineation Study."
Both students and professionals will use this text time and again as a
reliable reference.
Athletic Taping and Bracing, Second Edition, has been significantly
improved with the addition of more than 450 full-color illustrations and
photos. These include 60 superb three-dimensional anatomical images from
Primal Pictures. The photos that illustrate taping sequences feature tape
with darkened edges that enable readers to distinguish the layers and patterns
of the tape applied in each step.
With its concise anatomical descriptions and detailed anatomical illustrations
similar to those normally found in advanced texts on anatomy, the book
clearly highlights the mechanisms of injury that are crucial for understanding
effective taping and bracing. The text thoroughly discusses and illustrates
the general principles of taping and bracing for each major joint and body
region. It also contains step-by-step instructions for 36 taping and wrapping
procedures, some of which are broken down into as many as 16 steps. It
illustrates procedures for fabricating protective pads and orthotics, and
it details the dos and don'ts of taping and bracing.
To emphasize rehabilitation as well as prevention, Athletic Taping
and Bracing, Second Edition, also presents basic stretching and strengthening
exercises for injury rehabilitation. These exercises, presented and illustrated
for each body part, focus on flexibility, strength, and proprioception.
Combined with the taping and bracing procedures, the exercises will help
rehabilitated athletes maintain strength and flexibility and safely return
to play.
Through Athletic Taping and Bracing, Second Edition, readers
will learn the foundations and techniques of taping and bracing. Taping
and bracing are presented as adjuncts to, rather than panaceas for, the
athlete's total rehabilitation. The emphasis on rehabilitation as well
as prevention will help readers become more effective health care providers
for athletes and other active people with musculoskeletal injuries and
problems.
Athletic Taping and Bracing, Second Edition, captures the art
and science of taping and bracing through detailed explanations and spectacular
images. It stays in step with current NATA competencies and practices,
and it offers top-quality instruction. With all this, Athletic Taping
and Bracing, Second Edition, is the premier text in its field.

The
Paleo Diet for Athletes: A Nutritional Formula for Peak Athletic Performance
by Loren Cordain, Joe Friel
Paperback from Rodale Books
Media Published: 2005-
ISBN: 1594860890
Loren Cordain, Ph.D., follows
his success of The Paleo Diet with the first book ever to detail the exercise-enhancing
effects of a diet similar to that of our Stone Age ancestors.
When The Paleo Diet was published, advocating a return to the diet
of our ancestors (high protein, plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables),
the book received brilliant reviews from the medical and nutritional communities.
Jennie Brand-Miller, coauthor of the bestselling Glucose Revolution, called
it "without a doubt the most nutritious diet on the planet." Doctors Michael
and Mary Dan Eades, authors of Protein Power, said, "We can't recommend
The Paleo Diet highly enough."
Now Dr. Cordain joins with USA triathlon and cycling elite coach Joe
Friel to adapt the Paleo Diet to the needs of athletes. The authors show:
o Why the typical athletic diet (top-heavy with grains, starches, and
refined sugars) is detrimental to recovery, performance, and health
o How the glycemic load and acid-base balance impact performance
o Why consumption of starches and simple sugars is only beneficial
in the immediate post-exercise period
At every level of competition, The Paleo Diet for Athletes can maximize
performance in a range of endurance sports. |
