Modern cricket fitness guide that debunks the myths
If you are an experienced conditioning coach looking for great ideas or a total novice in the world of fitness who wants to improve your game then this book is ideal.

Cricket and fitness are still 2 words that rarely go together. Especially in the club game. Fighting against the storm, SAQ takes a fresh look at the fitness needs of cricketers at all levels.

The book is built on sound sports science, but it is written in an easy to understand way with a range of drills outlined and combined in an overall plan.

The one small weakness I would hesitate to mention is the section on weight training which is very limited. However, this book is aimed at producing fit, fast, agile and quick players so to judge it as a strength training book would be harsh.

Now I just need to convince the rest of my team that the drills are worthwhile!
