Description

Since its first published edition more than 30 years ago, the BASES (British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences) Physiological Testing Guidelines have represented the leading knowledge base of current testing methodology for sport and exercise scientists.

Sport and exercise physiologists conduct physiological assessments that have proven validity and reliability, both in laboratory and sport-specific contexts.

A wide variety of test protocols have been developed, adapted and refined to support athletes of all abilities reach their full potential.

This book is a comprehensive guide to these protocols and to the key issues relating to physiological testing.

With contributions from leading specialist sport physiologists and covering a wide range of mainstream sports in terms of ethical, practical and methodological issues, this volume represents an essential resource for sport-specific exercise testing in both research and applied settings.

This new edition draws on the authors’ experience of supporting athletes from many sports through several Olympic cycles to achieve world leading performances.

While drawing on previous editions, it is presented in a revised format matching the sport groupings used in elite sport support within the UK sport institutes.

Building on the underpinning general procedures, these specific chapters are supported by appropriate up-to-date case studies in the supporting web resources.
