Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
Functional Training Anatomy covers all aspects of how to build a purposeful, effective, and efficient training program that develops the power, strength, stability, and functional mobility needed to support the body’s demands in athletic performance and daily living.
MoreLong description:
The term “functional training” has been associated with a fair amount of controversy ever since it became part of the fitness training vernacular more than a decade ago. In Functional Training Anatomy, noted strength and conditioning specialists Kevin Carr and Mary Kate Feit cut through the clutter and misconceptions about functional training and cover all aspects of how to build a purposeful, effective, and efficient program that provides the strength, stability, and mobility you need to support your body in life and in sports.
Beginning with a clear definition of what functional training entails, you will learn about the importance of mobility training and its impact on movement quality, performance, and injury reduction. Use the warm-up activities to prepare for high-intensity activities. Use the medicine ball and plyometric exercises to learn to produce and absorb force. Develop power with Olympic lifts, kettlebell swings, and jumping exercises. Improve strength in the upper body, lower body, and core with hip-dominant, knee-dominant, pushing, pulling, and core exercises.
See the inner workings of each of the exercises with superb full-color illustrations that show the primary and secondary muscles and connective tissue being used. The detailed instructions for these multiplanar and unilateral exercises ensure you execute each one correctly and safely. The Functional Focus element shows how the exercises translate to specific activities, whether that be an explosive athletic move or simply moving a box.
Functional Training Anatomy incorporates traditional and nontraditional exercises and mobility drills that will help you increase functional strength and reduce injury so your body is prepared to support the demands of athletic performance and daily living.

"Functional Training Anatomy provides a much-needed connection of muscle- and movement-based perspectives on program design, emphasizing training patterns that are fundamental to performance across sports. Presenting an effective system of exercise categorization along with tips on how to correctly perform impactful exercises, Functional Training Anatomy is a great resource for all fitness and performance professionals."
—Kevin Neeld, PhD, Head Performance Coach for the Boston Bruins
“Functional Training Anatomy does a great job of explaining the ‘why.’ I highly recommend it for anyone serious about training and performance.”
—Ben Bruno, Celebrity Personal Trainer
“If there is one training question that comes up time and again, it is ‘Where do I start?’ Functional Training Anatomy is part of the answer!”
—Charlie Weingroff, Physical Performance Lead and Head Strength and Conditioning Coach for the Canadian Men’s National Basketball Team
“Having a solid working knowledge of anatomy is necessary for all coaches, and Functional Training Anatomy breaks down the anatomical considerations for key exercises and lifts in a simple yet effective way. Coaches will gain a deeper understanding of these movements through the study of anatomy, which will ultimately improve their programming. Functional Training Anatomy should be a staple in all young coaches’ libraries."
—Sue Falsone, Personal Trainer and Clinician Consultant
