In this episode Australian Institute of Sport Athlete Development Senior Lead Graham Turner joins Gordon MacLelland to discuss his latest book 'The Young Athlete's Perspective.'This book features six stories told by young athletes about their talent development experiences in sport. Each young athlete tells a personal story. They describe their own individual set of circumstances and provide a personal perspective that has been shaped by living in contemporary times.These unique stories are shared in the hope that they may support coaches and parents to better connect with the young athlete's perspective. When considered together, these individual insights confirm the essence of the talent development experience, and they reveal what every parent and coach supporting and developing the young athlete needs to know.During the conversation they discuss amongst other things:Understanding the mentality of young peopleWorking closely to understand your own child (they are all different)The importance of hard work and making the most from the whole sporting experienceHelping our children to trust themselves and find environments that allow them to thriveThe importance of positive relationships between the key people around young peopleCreating an environment for genuine, authentic conversationsImpression management and how information is perceived by all involvedThe importance of parental role-modelling and walking the walkGraham works for the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) as Athlete Development Senior Lead, supporting National Sporting Organisations to establish world's best High-Performance Pathways that identify, develop, and progress talented athletes to achieve medal winning performances. Graham's career in athlete development and talent pathways began in professional football at Wolverhampton Wanderers where he worked under former England National Coach Graham Taylor.

Today's show is with coach and educator, Dan Cleather.  Dan is a reader in strength and conditioning and the programme director of the MSc in strength and conditioning at St Mary's University, Twickenham, UK.  Dan began coaching at Cal State Long Beach, and then worked at the English Institute of Sport.  He has coached national and international medalists across a wide range of sports, and in particular has worked with World and Olympic champions. Dan is the author of several books on the topics of science and sports performance, including “Force”: The Biomechanics of Training, and “The Little Black Book of Training Wisdom”.  Dan has published over 40 peer-reviewed and scientific articles, and is a founder member of the UK Strength and Conditioning Association. When it comes to performance training, coaches often cite a disconnect between what they are coaching, and what actually happens when an athlete competes.  We can gain a greater understanding of this issue by simply looking at how movement actually happens in sport, and how athletes actually manage forces.  Many control points in coaching tend to revolve around slow, or easily observable aspects of movement (usually the end-points), when the complex reality of movement renders coaching around these endpoints obsolete, if not counter-productive. On the show today, Dan will share with us how he views common coaching practices revolving around scientific terminology, such as “force absorption”.  He'll go into some fallacies around force-based principles involving landing dynamics in sport, deceleration training, and how coaches go about instructing Olympic weightlifting.  Dan will speak on where science, and “evidence-based” practices fit in with one's coaching philosophy and intuition, and will share his thoughts on the link between gardening plants and coaching athletes.

Timestamps and Main Points: 4:37 – Dan's background as an athlete and what got him into strength and conditioning 7:58 – Dan's take on learning skills as a coach, in order to be a better learning (and coach) of skills 15:11 – Dan's thoughts on what applying science to training actually is 22:42 – How coaches tend to frame “force-absorption” in athletics, and what it actually is 32:47 – Thoughts on the body dealing with forces from a perspective of being a “machine” or from a self-organizing perspective 41:27 – Dan's thoughts on any sort of deceleration training for sport, and how coaches tend to spend too much time on versions of movement that are too reductionist 48:20 – The link between seeds, plants, gardening and athletic performance 52:58 – Dan's take on traditional Olympic lifting practices in light of force development “The more skills you learn, the better you get at learning skills” “Evidence based doesn't mean that the science is prescriptive, we see 8 parts of a 30 piece jigsaw puzzle, which are the bits of evidence we are getting from the science, and we work out the rest of what that puzzle looks like based on our experience, our discussions with the coaches, etc.” “The scientific evidence is an important part of our philosophy but it's our philosophy that guides the decisions that we make” “If you do something because your previous coach did it, that's the evidence of what they did” “Coaches find out what works, and 25 years later, the sport scientists come along and explain why… if you had to wait for the science before you were prepared to make a decision then you wouldn't be able to do very much” “Absorption implies that there is something you have got that is being sucked up by something, and can be released later” “We call a softer landing with more flexion of the knees and hips “force absorption”,

David Jackson (Jacko) is a former professional rugby player at Nottingham Rugby Club making over 300 first team appearances and scoring over 100 tries. He then turned to Strength and Conditioning becoming an accredited member of the UK Strength and Conditioning Association and co-founded the School of Callisthenics. He also explored breathing with the Oxygen Advantage after finishing rugby with a traumatic Brain Injury. As a result of this injury his brain function and breath was initially effected, so with a strong desire to get back to optimal health he explored many things but realised, after reading the Oxygen Advantage book, that breathing would be a critical part in this journey. In this conversation we talk about his retirement from the game due to a nasty head injury sustained at training and the challenging year he faced as a result. We go on to talk about a tool he has used in recent years to transform his health - breathing! Sounds too simple or even too good to be true but Jacko describes some of mechanisms of the breath and how changing the way we breath can have a huge impact on the rest of our body. A big thank you to Jacko for sharing his time today and talking about his recent work with the breath. To find out more about his work follow his personal page on instagram here: www.instagram.com/jackohumanflag Or check out his online breath course here: https://www.rootedlife.co.uk/breathwork Finally, The Post Rugby Podcast would like to invite you to our Free Facebook Group - The Post Rugby Community to connect with other rugby players (current and retired) and like minded people to continue your journey to a happier and healthier life post rugby. The time for raising awareness for improved physical and mental health in the game of rugby is over and the time for taking action is here. I hope you found some inspiration listening to the podcast today and are encouraged to take action by trying some of the things the guest talks about. See you next time :)
