The ONE thing SPORT SCIENTISTS and COACHES are MISSING!

BUT what is the ONE KEY FACTOR that should influence YOUR DECISIONS when PLANNING and executing your workouts and training 😵?

In our very FIRST episode of the TRAINING SCIENCE PODCAST 🎤🎬 we showcase one of the MAJOR FACTORS for successful performance coaching 👨🏽‍🏫!

After a combined experience of 45 years, Martin and Paul have seen 🙈 it all in professional sports – as ATHLETES, sports scientists, coaches and SPORTS PERFORMANCE consultants.

We’ve arrived at the point where we believe there is no one single magic bullet. If we had to pick one however, it would be the appreciation of CONTEXT. Context around your SPORT, TRAINING, SLEEP MANAGEMENT, NUTRITION, LOAD MANAGEMENT, etc. Context is always more important than the content.

Context means we must look into all the FACTORS that can influence TRAINING and WORKOUT design, periodisation and execution🔎. All must be established before we pencil in any training prescription content if we are to be effective.

What is a type of CONTEXT 👁️‍🗨️ in training, sport science, coaching or generally sports that you believe is important?

⬇️☺️ LET US KNOW IN THE COMMENTS☺️ ⬇️

Show notes – Episode 1 Training Science Podcast
1. As hosts, we have 45 years of shared experience as athletes, sport scientists, coaches and consultants – and yet we still must go more or less on a case by case basis when we look to our training recommendations.
2. Therefore, CONTEXT determines everything. It drives the session content, the planning, the monitoring, etc.
3. If one remains ignorant to the context and/or fixed in one’s ways, this will detrimentally affect both knowledge-type or experiential-type driven practitioners.
4. Exchange of knowledge, information, experience and data with your athletes, and other practitioners, is key to appreciating context and improving communication and understanding between professions.
