Elite Sport in Times of Global Health Crises, (Paperback)

This book, Elite Sport in Times of Global Health Crises emerges from the need to systematically examine the multidimensional impact of the pandemic on high-performance sport. It synthesizes global evidence on physical conditioning, psychological health, technological innovation, sport-type variability, and organizational adaptation during periods of crisis. Moving beyond descriptive accounts, the book seeks to provide conceptual clarity, practical insights, and strategic recommendations for future preparedness in elite sport systems.<br>The COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated the need for robust theoretical frameworks to guide elite sport training during crises. Ecological dynamics explains performance adaptation to constrained environments, while stress and coping theories explain psychological responses to disruption. Conservation of Resources Theory highlights the importance of support systems. The Sporting Resilience Model integrates these perspectives by explaining how athletes adapt positively to adversity. <br>Future elite sport programs should integrate theoretical models into practical training design, athlete support systems, and crisis preparedness strategies.
