Goodreads Synopsis:

Soccer Injury Prevention and Treatment

Written by the medical coordinator for Major League Soccer, a nationally recognized physical therapist who treats athletes of all ages and abilities, “Soccer Injury Prevention and Treatment” is a comprehensive, illustrated guide to the best training, strengthening, stretching, nutrition, and hydration regimens to keep athletes – both professional and recreational – safe and on the field. You’ll learn:

Ways to prevent the most common soccer injuries, including ACL tears, fractures, ankle sprains, calf strains, shin splints, and overuse injuries To identify the signs and symptoms of injury and when to seek treatment Common setbacks for children and youth How to reduce pain and stop nagging injuries from becoming chronic problems Return-to-play protocols for concussion and warning signs for serious brain injury Exercises to build endurance, flexibility, and power while protecting your body from harm The LESS program, a targeted lower-body strengthening plan to prevent injury.

Hott Review of Soccer Injury Prevention and Treatment:

This is obviously not a reading book so, in some ways it’s a bit difficult to review but overall it is a very helpful book.

The medical terms are a bit over my head and I did have some trouble understanding some of what he’s referencing at times throughout the book.

However, this is something to keep on the shelf because as the mom of a soccer player and the wife of a coach I’m constantly on the sidelines watching and making sure that everyone is playing at their potential. This book has helped our players understand their muscles better and has given us, as parents, a better understanding of what is acceptable and unacceptable pain and what to do about it.
