Author Description

The Science of BMX is the first book to examine the scientific underpinnings of BMX and offer theoretically grounded, evidence-based interventions to improve cycling performance. Drawing on the latest research across the sport and exercise sciences, the book explores every aspect of BMX preparation and performance, including: Physiological elements of BMX performance Physiological testing in BMX Periodisation and applied training methods Strength and conditioning for BMX The psychology of racing Bike dynamics and design Integrating case study examples throughout, no other book bridges the gap between scientific theory and applied practice in the same way, making The Science of BMX a valuable reference for students and researchers in applied sport science and essential reading for sport scientists or coaches working in the discipline of cycling more broadly.
