QUOTES “So my first goal when I arrived here in Wagga was to really make sure that the PTIs understood that I'm not here to do their job, I'm here to actually find ways to highlight the good things that they do” “We try not to use the word sport science or sports physiotherapy or sports nutrition in this tactical domain because there will be people that will automatically turn off and some of the early pushback we'd get is this isn't sport and we're not dealing with athletes, so don't talk to us about sports science. So we change the terminology and most of the time you'll hear us say it's performance science.” “if the PTIs can implement three tailored plyometric regressions and progressions for a group of 60 recruits, if they can do that comfortably with no logistical hiccups, the you can optimize the accuracy of how we are breaking them down into different groups.” “So our job is not just about improving what they do as a recruit, but it's really essentially providing more tools in the toolbox for the aviator. So human performance should be the responsibility of the individual and they (the aviators) should be taking full ownership of their own human performance.” “What we're trying to do is make sure that they're not just fit for service, but fit for life. And when they're finished with their Air Force career, whether that's four years or 25 years later, they have a foundation that can carry them long after their military career” SHOWNOTES 1) Christopher's background and journey in tactical strength & conditioning 2) What it looks like for an initial recruit coming into the Royal Australian Air Force 1RTU and how the performance staff that support the RAAF staff 3) The relationship and interactions between performance staff and physical training instructors (PTIs) 4) The evolution of gold standard and best practice in the RAAF 1RTU physical training 5) Using force plates to make data-driven decisions about training modifications for recruits 6) The role of education in improving RAAF employee's physical performance and “raising the floor” across the RAAF workforce 7) The importance of being able to simplify the complex with S&C PEOPLE MENTIONED Phil Moreland Steve Smith Scott Ryder

Quotes “An explosive device might be identified as being on the side of the ship. And these divers will go down and instantly I'm thinking, all right, they're going to try and remove the mine off a boat. But it's not the case. They'll actually go down there and drill into the explosive device to try and flood the system so that it doesn't go off and these sorts of things can happen in the dead of night” “Senior instructors that were responsible for the phases of the divers would come to those meetings and get feedback around each of the divers, their readiness to perform, their fatigue, anything related to muscular soreness, and your basic five point wellness questionnaire.” “it's around about a million dollars to train one single diver. So if you're getting towards the back end of a course, and it's gone for 11 months and all of a sudden the diver succumbs to an injury, they'll have to repeat that phase, and that's money tied up or potentially and depending on the injury, that's money lost. “whilst we communicated jump height to the divers, we looked at our RSI as a readiness tool and we were actually testing at the back end of the week. Now gold standard would obviously be on the Monday, but we dealt with the dates that we were given... So the conversation always stemmed around, right, this was the cost of the week” “Pull -ups are a big cultural thing with the clearance divers.” “the PTI then came on this journey where they realized that if they were gonna introduce a session, there was obviously gonna be an increased level of soreness versus having a bit more of a consistent structure to the sessions on a more regular basis that soreness is going to go down and you're going to allow those divers to actually experience some improvement” “we can give them 10 minutes of what they want to then give them 50 minutes of what they need. It's a good trade -off” SHOWNOTES 1) Chris' background as a swimmer and progression in tactical strength and conditioning 2) Challenges faced by Navy clearance divers and addressing vocational drop-out 3) Implementing an athlete monitoring system with Navy clearance divers 4) Strength and power assessments relevant to clearance divers and categorizing divers in “force” or “fit” buckets 5) Traditional physical training for Navy divers, “finning” and influencing PTIs 6) Targeting shoulder and hip resilience and identifying high risk phases in navy diver training 7) Recommendations for using sport science technology in a new environment 8) The strategy of giving people what they want and the strategies of negotiating

Hey SC Mafia, Welcome to Episode 11 of the Podcast! On this episode, we speak with Joe Hudson of the Boston Red Sox organization of Major League Baseball. Joe has recently been promoted to Major League S&C Coach after 8 years within the minor league system at every level. Joe's perspective is unique to a Strength and Conditioning Coach because he's grown within the organization along with many of the players he's worked with, with many approaching and reaching the big leagues during his time. In part one of our conversation, we speak more about specific programming implications of technology in S&C. With force plates and VBT becoming more prevalent in the field and some level of uncertainty regarding how to effectively integrate those tools seamlessly, we speak about our thoughts on using data to make informed decisions and produce more specific training adaptations for professional baseball players. Every player's path to the big leagues is different, and baseball players present very different physical profiles between individuals. In answering the question "how do we drive this player's performance up?" we arrive at the conclusion that a small margin of adaptation in targeted metrics can actually help, while producing more questions than answers. We discuss how athletes respond differently to stimuli, and falling down the rabbit hole is all too easy, so after working through how to identify data that is important to performance, we speak about creating the desired change while never losing the art of coaching. Hope you enjoy the episode, and as always, please reach out with any feedback to scmafiapodcast@gmail.com or either Instagram account associated with the show (@sc_strength or @Connor_Ryder33).

James is currently the Head of Talent Identification & Athlete Development at Elite Sport UAE and a Visiting Fellow at Northumbria University. James brings a unique blend of skills and experience as an accredited S&C coach, physical education teacher, sport scientist and researcher. His current research is focused on the effect of growth and maturation on performance in youth track and field. Previously he worked at the Aspire Academy in Doha, Qatar as the Head of Talent Identification and Development, a senior strength and conditioning coach and performance support lead for Track and Field during his time there. In 2020, he was awarded the ASCA Senior Research Award on behalf of the Aspire Academy research team and James was also awarded the UKSCA's S&C Coach of the Year Award for Youth Sport in 2017 for his work in the school setting. QUOTES “When I used to speak to the athletics coaches about maturation, I'd say, yeah, he's an early maturer and they were like, so what? How much difference does that make?” “The mean maximum velocity for the approaching peak height velocity (PHV) group is 7.1m/s and the max velocity for the post-PHV group is 8.5m/s… So, in those situations, when you put them on the track, you can imagine how that extrapolates out over 60, 70, 80, 90, 100 meters” “So 87-88% of predicted adult height is typically the takeoff point for the growth spurt and we start to see a big increase in growth with the peak of growth being typically between 91-92% of predicted adult height.” “The best approach is to keep as many athletes as possible in your (TID) programs for as long as possible” “If we're applying these correction procedures to athletes, we're still talking about early maturing athletes that are running 7.5s for 60. They're still not world beaters at this point. They all still need support, but it's not to say we should exclude the early maturer either. We need to keep the people in the pipeline, keep giving them what they need in terms of strength and conditioning, and great coaching.” “Actually, being an early maturer for girls can be a disadvantage because of the fat mass gains that occur post-PHV versus a girl who is pre-PHV who's still relatively lean, not carrying fat. And in my experience, most of the girls will jump their highest CMJs pre-PHV and then it all flat lines” “There's certain sports where if you haven't accumulated training by a certain age, then, you know, the really skill -based sports, it's probably going to be harder to get there to an elite level” SHOWNOTES 1) James' background in both strength & conditioning and PE teaching and his journey to talent identification in elite sport in the Middle East 2) Why interpreting performance through a lens of maturation is important and how to track physical performance metrics around peak height velocity (PHV) 3) The continuum of maturation in young athletes from pre-pubertal to post-PHV 4) Different methods of predicting adult height in youth athletes and their respective strengths and weaknesses 5) Optimizing talent ID programs to enhance retention and the psychosocial aspects of these programs 6) Correcting track & field performance based on maturation to get closer to be able to compare youth athletes of the same age but different maturation levels 7) Potential differences between boys' and girls' physical performance measures around PHV 8) Strategies for working with sports coaches in the TID space to allow for maturation-based evaluation and adjustments for open skill sports 9) Managing training around PHV to help reduce injury risk and the typical pattern of growth and injury site location in youth athletes PEOPLE MENTIONED Ed Archer Alex Natera Amanda Johnson Marco Cardinale Phil Kearney Craig Pickering Shaun Abbott Stephen Cobley Tom Maher Matt Jordan Mike Young Jeremy Sheppard Dan Baker Boo Schexnayder

QUOTES “One of our biggest concerns is swimmers, and it's like in any sport, their sport age is very different to their S&C training age, so you get swimmers that have been in the pool for five, 10 years, but when they come into our environment, they've got less than one year of good experience” “If you ever spend any time around swim coaches, you'll hear the word connection probably on a daily basis and my interpretation of what swimming coaches are talking about is how efficiently are they sequencing together movements of their joints through water.” “It is very common to hear swim coaches and swimming athletes talk about “what can you pull up?” but one of the things we are interested in is an athlete's ability to pull their own body weight up as fast as they can for as many repetitions without a certain drop of velocity” “So within about six weeks of major competitions, we're going through a set testing battery, which includes bench press velocity and bench press maximal strength, pull up maximal strength, pull up velocity and counter movement jump and squat jump performance” “I've always believed one of the strength and conditioning coach's biggest weaknesses is their general anatomical knowledge” SHOWNOTES 1) The back stories of Max and Mark including Max's PhD research on swim performance and land-based interventions in the warm up 2) The basics of athletic movements for swimming like streamlining and rotation control, and the importance of connection 3) The adaptation of common traditional exercises like the pull up and reverse hyperextension to be more swim specific 4) The importance of monitoring vertical pulling speed and drops in speed in swimming 5) Swimming strength and power profiling before major competition 6) Strength ratios between upper body exercises and their influence on programming 7) A look into the day-to-day process and weekly periodization at UniSC swimming program 8) The power of the mind and influence of pre-competition lifting on swimming performance 9) The importance of knowing anatomy as a strength and conditioning coach PEOPLE MENTIONED Scott Pollock Dan Howells Dr Mark Burnley Adam Peaty

In episode 235 Louise Wood, S&C Coach at QPR Women, joins us. Specifically Louise will be looking at: Types of bone iinjuries How bones heal How to accelerate the healing process About Louise "Ten years ago I decided to go back to university and study sports rehab, followed by a masters in Strength & Conditioning. I jumped straight in the deep end getting internships with London Bronco's, The Forge Clinic, Cobham RFC and the Samoa Rugby. I was working in the NHS for three years in respiratory outpatients, then inpatients during the pandemic. Followed by a move to geriatric medicine. I decided that sport was where I wanted to be so I took a casual role at QPR. Three season later I am now working with the PDP and women's first team. Over the last three months I took a little sabbatical to trade football for rugby league at London Broncos as senior GSR with the men's 1st team and Head of rehab and S&C coach for the women's team. The immediate future involves hopefully seeing QPR women gain promotion to championship level and become full time footballers. As for the end game I'm slowly building my own clinic which will offer a broad spectrum of rehab and performance services for youth athletes, weekend warriors, professionals and older adults."

As an S & C Coach for Professional Athletes, it is imperative that I use my time wisely.Typically, I only have my athletes two to three times per week.Sometimes, it is a short 3 to 4 week period to start or finish camp.Other times, I get the opportunity to spend 8 to 10 weeks building a general base of strength and aerobic capacity, before transitioning to more specific speed/power and endurance/conditioning work.Regardless of the time period, everything I program needs to have a specific intent.I'm doing the biggest bang-for-buck drills I can, to suit the intent of the session/week/block/phase/program/camp etc.The RAMP protocol is my go-to, systematic way of preparing myself and my clients for the training sessions they are about to undertake.I see so many people just doing random work for their warm-up, which is better than nothing, but not optimal to prepare the mind and the body to get the most out of a structured training session.This formula can be applied to any training program, and should be tailored specifically to the modality of training, movement requirements, exercise selection, and individual needs required for that day's training session.Raise- Heart rate- Respiratory rate- Core temperature- Blood flow to working muscles- Viscous fluid to specific jointsActivate- Fire up the stabilisers- Connect to prime movers- Integrate synergists into compound movementsMobilise- Release tension in tight muscles- Increase range of movement- Align the joint to optimise movement patternsPotentiate- Practice/warm-up/ramp up sets- Refine technique and skill - Ramp up central nervous system to match the upcoming sessionThe RAMP Package is a 60-Day Introduction to the Mobility, Stability and Prime Modules, delivered via the Coached By Kobes App. 18 routines to give you what you need for as little as 10 minutes a day!- 5 Mobility routines progressing from beginner to advanced- 6 Stability routines progressing from beginner to advanced- 7 Prime routines progressing from beginner to advancedThis is Phase 2 of 3 in the Live Train Perform Modular Training System.Phase 1 - Build The Base Program (30 days)Phase 2 - RAMP Package (60 days)Phase 3 - LTP Foundations Program (90 days)Elements and principles learned in Phase 1 and 2 feature in Phase 3, the LTP Foundations Program, which is the flagship product!The Best Warm Up System You Will Ever Use!⇓⇓⇓⇓⇓Shaun Kober is a Mindset & Performance Specialist, with a unique skillset forged in the trenches, through the various stages of life."I shouldn't be in the position I am right now."

The Chargers made a huge move bringing in new general manager Joe Hortiz after decades of helping the Ravens build some of the NFL's best rosters. Hortiz has long been an elite scout and talent evaluator and Jim Harbaugh's experience as an organizational CEO should help ease his transition. Dan and David get into the new GM and get ready to run through a wall for new Strength and Conditioning Ben Herbert. He held the same role with Michigan under Harbaugh and checks all of the boxes as an innovator and a motivator. Herbert is the type of coach that can help create a culture. The guys also get into some other potential additions to this All-Star staff like Lions Pass Game coordinator Tanner Engstrand. Engstrand could fill the Chargers open OC position with ties to Harbaugh, and could potentially be paired with veteran offensive line coach Tim Drevno.

Since working in S&C full time, I have transitioned into academia and I currently work as the Deputy Head of the Sport and Nutrition Department at University College Birmingham (UCB). My roles at UCB have afforded me fantastic opportunities to work with athletes across various other sports including golf and basketball, as well as with match officials. I am privileged to teach on both our undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in strength and conditioning. This is highly rewarding and I am passionate about ensuring learners acquire the necessary skills for success and develop into well-rounded professionals, whether they choose S&C or opt for alternative career pathways. I am committed to providing an excellent student experience and seeking out opportunities to enhance experiential learning."
