Functional Shoulder Training for Athletes provides a detailed package of exercises designed to integrate the shoulder into the rest of the body's kinetic chain. A must for any throwing athlete, the DVD covers exercises that are much more specific to the demands placed on the shoulder than ever before.

Among the topics covered:
Scapular stabilization exercises
Training the decelerators (where most injuries occur)
Integrating the rotator cuff into the rest of the body
Integrating explosive rotation of the upper body and shoulder in multiple directions and planes
Utilizing the body's natural movement and patterns (such as the latissimus dorsi working with the contra-lateral gluteus)

Featuring Richard Borden's considerable strength and conditioning and academic teaching background and Eric Kleven's extensive PGA golf teaching experiences, Functional-Strength and Flexibility Training for Golf is the perfect resource for golfers who want to hit the ball farther and with more accuracy. The DVD emphasizes the fact that simply increasing a golfer's basic strength is not the key to better performance on the golf course. Instead of a gym-based exercise program, the DVD focuses on the major factors in golf performance: timing, flexibility, balance, and functional strength. The functional strength aspect of their total program is designed to emphasize those exercises that are functionally close to those movements on the golf course. The program in the DVD is designed to facilitate balance, coordination, flexibility, and timing-each of which is tied in to a functional-strength program that simulates actual golf movements. The program detailed in the DVD offers several major advantages to golfers, including allowing individuals to train on their own, with minimal equipment, enhancing their ability to hit the ball a greater distance, improving their capacity to stay on the practice range longer without tiring to enhance golf skills, and developing greater muscle dynamics and support to reduce the incidence of injuries.
Among the topics covered:
Warm-ups
General strengthening for the upper body
General strengthening for the lower body
Exercises for simulating the golf swing
The golf swing
Exercises for the back swing
Exercises for the down swing and the follow-through
Stretching
Core strengthening

The rest interval between workout sets is an often neglected component in resistance-exercise prescription. In reality, however, this component is just as important as any other in producing the desired physiological adaptations. Programming Recovery Intervals During Resistance-Exercise Workouts discusses the prescription of rest intervals based on specific training goals, such as absolute strength, power, hypertrophy, and muscular endurance. The DVD also reviews several other factors that allow coaches to program the rest interval based on individual characteristics to maximize training progression.

Athletes expend substantial resources and spend hundreds of hours developing the physical skills needed to perform at their maximum level. The fact is, in every sport, the visual system is the initial point for processing information that allows those highly developed skills to respond accurately. Surprisingly, this factor is one of the most neglected aspects of the athlete's training. In Vision Basics: Seeing Your Way to a Better Game, the importance of making sure athletes have proper visual skills to complement their physical skills is addressed.
