What others are saying about The Complete Track and Field
Coaches Guide to Conditioning for the Throwing Events:
The Complete Track and Field Coaches’ Guide to Conditioning for
the Throwing Events is not only the greatest book that I have come across to
help throwing event athletes and coaches; it is the single best literature on
the entire subject of strength and conditioning. This book and DVD is full of
consistent biomechanical and physiological principles along with
straightforward, easy-to-understand, step-by-step teaching sequences and
workouts, making it an incredible addition to any strength coach’s library. Now,
all coaches can learn from the brilliant insight of one of the world’s greatest
coaches and sports scientists!

Association
As a throws coach who appreciates the value of the weight room
in direct relation to throwing performance, Coach Judge has long since been in
the forefront of the sport. His attention to science coupled with the ability to
manipulate sets and reps makes Dr. Judge someone I often seek advice from and
share opinions with.

Larry Judge is one of the most knowledgeable coaches I’ve ever
met on the areas of throwing and strength and conditioning. I highly recommend
this book and DVD to all coaches and athletes looking to improve their
performance.

This book and DVD is a throws coach’s indispensable reference
for science-based strength and conditioning strategies for both genders, from
high school to the Olympic level.

Without hesitation, I would recommend this book and DVD to all
individuals looking to maximize their performance as athletes and coaches in an
effort to reach their highest potential. Under Coach Judge’s guidance in the
weight room and on the throwing field, I was able to improve my best in the shot
put by nearly 4.5 m in just two years (after a three-year hiatus) and become the
American record holder. I also made it onto the Olympic team in the hammer throw
after just three years, despite my lack of previous experience in the event. I
never considered myself an athlete, let alone an elite athlete, before working
with Coach Judge.

Larry has proven himself to be one of the best throws coaches in
the world. At one NCAA meet, he had five athletes in the top six in the indoor
weight. Later, a sixth thrower broke the NCAA women’s hammer record. My advice:
buy this book and DVD set immediately!

I came to Coach Judge in 2004 as an NCAA Division III 53-foot
shot putter hoping to maximize my shot putting potential. In one year, he
coached me to 60’11" and helped me to make the 2005 World Championship team.
This book and DVD provides a detailed description of all the principles Judge
employed to coach me from a Division III shot putter to World Class. Coaches and
athletes seeking success in the throws should make this book and DVD their
bible.

Any coach interested in learning more about the theory and
methodology of strength and conditioning for the throws can benefit from reading
this book and DVD. Dr. Judge combines the latest research with proven methods
from his years of experience in the field into a system that can be adapted to
athletes from the most basic level up to the Olympic final. Applying the methods
from this text and DVD will help improve your athlete’s performance in any of
the throwing events.
