Principles of Athletic Training: A Competency-Based Approach

I bought this at the recommendation of an Athletic Trainer. I’m a student still in my undergrad but I wanted access to Athletic Training material.Tons of information on everything. I like it because I don’t have access to hands on training at the moment - perfect material to study in the meantime!

This is possibly my favorite text book and I've never been happy about a text book for college in my life. Usually they get shoved in the back of my closet after my class is over. This is a part of my normal book shelf and my go to for medical reading. I have learned a lot in this book along with my class. If you need this book for a class it's a good text book, but if you just want to have a text book of injuries, such as sprang's, torn ligaments, wraps, and my favorite, medical taping for these injuries this is a very informative book to have.

I still have this book. It was exactly what I needed to pass my class. It was also cheaper then at the campus book store. Glad I did come to Amazon and look for the book .It was a good read also and I did pass my class:)

this is a decent resource but a lot of the information is fairly basic. would recommend a different book for more in depth approaches.

I like the book for school to read the chapter but it does have one flaw. You can not "write" notes into or on the pages of the ebook. Having this ability would be great instead of having to type in notes that do not show up until you click on them.. Having a "pen" with all Kindle books would be awesome.

This book is a perfect read for anybody wanting to learn about fitness, general knowledge, or even someone who wants to make training a career. Packed with tons of knowledge.

Great book to learn how to work with athletes who are recovering from injury or who had a recent injury. This book has step by step information when talking to a patient or athlete. Each chapter covers a different joint (GH, elbow/wrist, hip, knee, ankle.....) AWESOME book for gym owners to help out their athletes.

This is required for my daughter's masters program, so it must be good

Useful

The book itself isn't bad. I don't like the organization of the book. But Amazon sent a a book that was all rippped up; that was pretty disappointing. If I wasn't in a hurry to receive it, I would have gotten a refund for the book.

really great book for all your AT needs. Helped me pass two certifications!
