Dear Reader,

Every sports coach knows that the success of a training program is
largely dependent upon satisfying the performance aims associated with
it.

That’s why regular performance evaluation is so essential, whether
you’re coaching a group of athletes or a self-coached individual.
Because periodic testing and measuring is the only way to get the
up-to-date, accurate and objective information you need to assess
current performance, then make informed decisions about future
training and competition goals.

However, before conducting a test you need to be 100% sure that it
satisfies all the following criteria:

* SPECIFICITY (the test is designed to assess an athlete's fitness
for the activity in question)
* VALIDITY (it tests what it purports to test)
* RELIABILITY (the test is capable of consistent repetition), and
* OBJECTIVITY (it can produce a consistent result irrespective of
the tester).

That’s why _Peak Performance_ have brought together all of the
essential sports performance tests currently available, and published
them in a handy, electronic workbook (Adobe Acrobat PDF format).

This best EVER selling workbook, 101 Performance Evaluation Tests,
is the largest, most complete and authoritative collection of sports
performance evaluation tests there is. And it’s an essential tool
for anyone wanting to predict athletic performance or evaluate an
athlete’s current level of fitness

_"A fantastic resource all trainers should have access too. It has
really helped me set up new training ideas and kept the performers
interested."_ Dave Burrows, PE Teacher & Sports Coach

Because 101 Performance Evaluation Tests covers all the principal
facets of fitness– endurance, agility, mobility & balance, strength,
speed & power and sports psychology, it’s able to meet every
athlete’s requirements, not matter which sport they compete in.

Several body composition tests are also included, so you can gauge
what sort of shape an athlete’s in, plus a handy set of VO2 max
tables.

And to top it all, there's a specially built in interactive
component to the workbook. This harnesses the power and convenience of
the internet to make performance testing easier and more beneficial
for coaches and self-coached individuals alike.

HERE’S HOW IT WORKS:

Each test that enables an athlete’s raw performance results to be
computed and further analysed has a web link connecting you to its own
online calculator. To use the calculator, simply click on the web link
(situated on the workbook page for that test), key in your raw
performance data, click on the ‘’results’ button and the
calculator instantly computes the athlete’s results.

In this way, 101 Performance Evaluation Tests takes all the hassle
out of calculating performance test results – and helps you ensure
that, when you perform the same test periodically over time, your
methodology doesn’t waver from one test to another. It’s one less
thing for you to worry about in your already-overcrowded daily
schedule.

With your copy of 101 Performance Evaluation Tests you’re
guaranteed (1) that you’re testing your athletes in the right way,
thanks to our authoritative, step-by-step explanations of how each
test should be performed, and (2) that your test results are correctly
calculated first time, every time, thanks to the handy online
calculator.

So, no more worries about making an arithmetical error in any of
your calculations. It’s all taken care of!

You can even compare the information with previous results from the
same individual, or with generally-accepted scores for that test if
you prefer. The workbook comes with a results template (in Microsoft
Excel format) that you can use to store data over time for one or more
athletes.

_"The book that helps me to identify not only the weakness of the
athletes, but also their strength. It contains rich, user-friendly
material which coaches can apply to all kind of sports. If you are a
coach it is your best partner, if . If you are an athlete it is your
best friend, ."_
Steven Ng, Tennis Coach, Hong Kong

And here’s another major benefit of using this coaching resource
that you shouldn’t overlook. A coach can easily become wedded over
time to a particular test or sets of tests, often for no other reason
than sheer familiarity. The more often you use a test, the more likely
you are to use it again… But just because you’re used to using one
particular test for endurance or power, doesn’t mean that there
aren’t other ones out there worth evaluating.

The question is: how can you be sure which performance tests are
worth trying out?

Now you can, thanks to 101 Performance Evaluation Tests. Because_
Peak Performance_ have included a considerable number of proven tests
under each fitness category, today you have the opportunity to compare
and contrast your own preferred tests for agility, say, with some of
the other accepted tests.

Who knows, you might find an even better alternative to the one
you’re currently using.

So take a quick look at the full list of performance tests included
in this brand new coaching resource: Just think how many of them you
could use with the athletes under your care. Then order your copy of
