Train What You NEED for Your Sport and Not Just for the Gainz - With Matt Nichol and Paul Laursen
Show Notes

You can be a GREAT ATHLETE and have AMAZING physical abilities… or not😎. There are many top level athletes who are not that well “trained” — and that’s ok!

Matt Nichol wants you to understand that skill is most important to FOCUS 🔍 on in team sports, and make everything in your practice hyper-focused to make you better at enhancing that - rather than just looking at numbers 📊 in your S&C sessions! 

In the 60th episode of The Training Science Podcast, Paul and Matt discuss 

🎯 the differences between sports with a HYPER FOCUS on SKILLS vs PHYSICAL ABILITIES, and how it matters in training design;

📉 how you should never OVERDO your work on the “SUPER ATHLETE”. Make sure that the physical training is specific to the sport and the individual you are working with;

😝 how your should TRY to INVESTIGATE new trends in sport and tech yourself, directly with your athletes, but without overthinking the implementation.
