Podcast appearances and mentions of gary nisbet

Today I welcome Gary Nisbet.Gary has been involved at the elite level of sport for over 20-years now and certainly knows a thing or two about the mindset when working with elite athletes. Gary has worked with the police force, football teams, and top professional squash players so far in his career. Gary is the fitness director for the global online coaching platform SquashSkills.com as well as working individually with several of the worlds top men and women players in the game. On the show today we go deep with 1 topic. Injuries. And in particular the mindset needed before and during injuries in a career. We have all become pretty good with the knowledge and scientific understanding of injuries, but maybe not enough has been explored in regard to the importance the mental state plays with how to cope positively with injuries. Gary does a fantasist job bringing this subject to life in this insightful and deep thinking episode. He eloquently describes tips and strategies athletes should employ about how best to get into the right state mentally when injuries inevitably happen in a career. It's not an easy thing for an athlete by any stretch of the imagination but I'd hope by the end of the conversation that listeners are better armed with tools how best to mentally get through injuries, short- or long-term, and to even be able to come through the other side stronger and better. Gary talks about, how when seen through the right lens, injuries are opportunities for growth and discovery. But only when the athlete uses the right tools and has the right support network around them. We also explore how and when an athlete should get back to playing and competing as well as how best to try and overcome the PTSD of injuries as well as the fear of re-injury. Thanks once again to Gary for giving us his time and his knowledge on the show today and I look forward to some future episodes with him also. Please enjoy. Hosted on Acast.

It's that time of year, about a month before most of our squash seasons commence. With that, it goes without saying that we'd ask Gary Nisbet to drop by, and he did so with some pure gold. Gary's been busy this summer putting together a squash training camp with CWG gold medalist Gina Kennedy, and he takes us through that and his thoughts on Gina's unparalleled strength and condition. Gary provides some tremendous insight on how we ought to be ramping up for the squash season which lies ahead, and we get into circuit training ideas, nutrition, and the benefits of sleep and creatine supplements. Another glorious ep with SquashSkills own Gary Nisbet.

Court closures, gym closures, social distancing and self-isolation are the measures we must take to stem the spread of Covid-19. Gary Nisbet of Squashskills takes us through how we can navigate this with an aim towards eventually hitting the courts running . There's plenty here to chew on, plenty of food for thought from one of the game's best squash physical strength and cardio gurus.

For the past few years Gary Nisbet and Jesse Engelbrecht have provided the squash community with a wealth of content via SquashSkills and their own respective academies. On this episode we flesh out several very practical things that I think apply to all of our games regardless of your level including the mental game and winning the critical points, injury prevention techniques, and the subtle differences b/t watching the ball and watching your opponent. These among several other technical and strength and condition related topics make this a must listen for all of us.

Jesse Englebrecht and Gary Nisbet (ep. 28) lit it up in a big way on our first dual guest episode. The questions for this episode came from the In Squash listeners and they spawned one of our best episodes to date. Jesse hit the ground sprinting and didn't look back with great intel on everything from junior development, the evolution of ghosting patterns, and how to teach deception, and then Gary joined in to tackle such things as the importance of the pre-game warm-up and dealing with in match fatigue. Not to be missed, episode 48.

Gary Nisbet is Squash Skills' resident fitness and training guru, and his tutorials on Squash Skills are a must see for those of us looking to get that edge on our competition and in our games in general. Gary and I had a great chat about all manner of squash fitness and training related topics, and we got a bit of a backstory in terms of who Gary is and what we can look forward to from him down the road.
