Lozo is a former professional athlete, the

and international championships. After ending
competitive career Goran helped many amateur
and professional athletes create and execute
their athletic training plans.
Goran

of Sports
and Sports Science, University of Belgrade,
Serbia. Throughout his entire career Goran
has kept records of his workouts. The information
and statistics in his workout logbooks were
the foundation for developing and executing
training plans for upcoming competitions.
When
you set up your personal fitness goal, keeping
the track of all workouts will help you
stay
focused and motivated. When you record
your workouts in your personal logbook you
can
easily summarize what you did in previous
week, month,
or a year and based on collected information
you can create or adjust your training
plan for the next week, month, or a year.
In
addition to practical value, this logbook
will become
one of your greatest memories. When you
revisit your old workout logbooks after
several years,
you will see it not as a logbook, but
as a testament to your character, dedication,
and
persistence. |

Book
Review
The
author Goran Lozo has been a successful active
athlete for many years. His top performances
at the Yugoslav championships, as well as
European and world competitions are evidence
of his being an outstanding athlete who has
passed through all stages of training and
competition. His experience in sports and
coaching carried out at the same time at
various sections and clubs, with different
age categories, are a basis for an outstanding
professional sports book.
In
an original way the book presents, didactically,
three units with which every devoted coach
is faced in his work (with children, cadet
and junior age).
He
presents the true traditional values of
karate skill in a highly original way through
his competition and coaching experience,
on one part, and modern scientific methods
in sports, on the other.
Most certainly the greatest value of the book is the position and analyses
made in these three chapters, and for the first time in our literature, in
such an original and personal way.
The
chapter treating the concept of coaching
the senior category of athletes and top competitors
has presented in the most modern way the
basic scientific position on coaching, in
sports in general, and particularly in the
karate skill and the karate sport.
I
recommend the book most sincerely to all
dedicated sports coaches and top competitors,
as the road passed by Mr. Goran Lozo is a
road of great experience, awareness and I
believe that Mr. Goran Lozo will continue
his work in this sphere. It would be a great
pity if he were to discontinue writing about
such serious topics when bestowed with such
a talent for writing.
