The High Performance Project takes you into the world of sports science and elite sport, through the stories and experiences of the most influential people in the sports industry.

Sport has changed forever, and the scientific experts have never been more important. But with the opportunities come greater pressures and challenges. On the High Performance Project, hosts Ben Gazzola and Jack Shephard talk to industry experts, scientists, coaches and professional athletes, who share their insights and perspectives on their journey in sport, technology, data and performance.

The High Performance Project | Stuart Gollan #46

October 12, 2021 • Lumin Sports • Season 2 • Episode 37

Stuart Gollan is the Lead Sports Scientist from the Adelaide United Football Club. 'Stu' as he is commonly know within the Lumin Sports team is a lover of all things performance and formulating ways to allow the human body to perform at its peak. Stu has worked within the world game now for a number of years now, before this completing internships with the Port Adelaide Football Club, working as a post graduate scholar at the Australian Institute of Sport and tutoring up and coming undergraduates in Applied Exercise Science with the University of South Australia.

As we have learnt through many of our High Performance Project conversations that everyones journey is different and Stu's is no different. He entered the industry quite late compared to most and has quickly made his way to leading a organisations high performance department. Stu puts this down a relentless pursuit of excellence and ability to network and be willing to try his hand at almost anything in the field. There were plenty of good takeaways in this conversation for anyone aspiring for a career in the sports industry or even simply having a dream or in pursuit of a goal and enabling a clear mindset to achieve success.

Stuarts story is a humble one and we had plenty of fun having him in for a podcast, a very educated and driven individual, it was to finally sit down with Stuart a great asset and friend of the Lumin Sports.
