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:
Scientific Foundations and Practical Applications of Periodization is the first book of its kind designed to optimize sport performance by integrating classic and modern periodization theories with recovery methodologies, nutritional interventions, and athlete monitoring guidelines.
MoreLong description:
The concept of periodization is not new, with the precursors of periodized training dating back more than 2,000 years ago. But it is now obvious that the holistic development of an athlete encompasses more than their physical and tactical training. Scientific Foundations and Practical Applications of Periodization is the first book of its kind designed to optimize sport performance by integrating both classic and modern periodization theories with recovery methodologies, nutritional interventions, and athlete monitoring guidelines.
Written by G. Gregory Haff, a world-leading expert on periodization, Scientific Foundations and Practical Applications of Periodization incorporates the latest scientific evidence to provide a comprehensive understanding of how to implement planning and programming strategies to enhance physiological adaptations. While other periodization books may discuss training theory, few provide information on how to integrate various training models into the periodization process. Here are just some of the approaches incorporated into Scientific Foundations and Practical Applications of Periodization:
- Employing and blending parallel, sequential, and emphasis periodization models to develop athletes
- Synching recovery strategies with various phases and periods of training to enhance the adaptational process
- Manipulating nutritional strategies to magnify performance
- Using and interpreting monitoring data to adjust an athlete’s program in accordance with the periodized plan
Get the most comprehensive resource about periodization ever written, and use scientific evidence to take your periodization programming to the next level with Scientific Foundations and Practical Applications of Periodization.
