Includes bibliographies and index
Since its first published edition the BASES (British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences) Physiological Testing Guidelines has represented the leading knowledgebase of testing methodology for sport and exercise scientists. Sport and exercise physiologists are called upon to conduct physiological assessments that have proven validity and reliability, in laboratory and sport-specific contexts. A variety of test protocols have been developed and adapted to support athletes of all abilities. Specific chapters outline safe and ethical environments for testing and how to appropriately contextualise testing outcomes. Presented in two volumes, Volume I covering sport-specific testing, and Volume II clinical and exercise testing, this book is a comprehensive guide to these protocols and to the key issues in physiological testing. With contributions from leading specialist sport physiologists and practitioners, covering a range of sports, ethical, practical and methodological issues, this volume is an essential resource for sport-specific exercise testing in research and applied settings. This new edition draws on the authors' experience of supporting athletes from many sports to achieve world leading performances. The revised format matches the sport groupings used in elite sport support within the UK Sport Institutes. These specific chaptersare supported in web resources
