Motorsport Fitness Manual

By: Dr R.S. Jutley, Andy Blow .

Peak fitness is a prerequisite for a competitive edge, and top motorsport teams routinely employ medics, psychologists, dieticians and even armed forces specialists to help drivers hone their performance. It's a different picture, however, at national and club level, where poor preparation can blight potential. The Motorsport Fitness Manual offers expert information on all aspects of physical and mental fitness, and draws on scientific and medical principles as part of your personal preparation for competition.

• Balance, agility and co-ordination.
• Weight loss.
• Motorsport-specific circuit training.
• Rescue procedures in an emergency.
• Extensively illustrated, including step-by-step exercise sequences.
• Contributions from motorsport luminaries, including Professor Sid Watkins and the late Colin McRae.
