Show Notes

Today we have Keir Wenham-Flatt, a huge influence on me as a coach. He is well known for challenging the system, so much so that he’s out creating his own system which you’ll find in the links below. We had a good chat on where rugby strength and conditioning is flawed, the kneesovertoes guy and why he’s successful, and what YOU should be looking at to improve your performance.
