Alex's trainer, Brian Nevison, joins us to talk about how to train for performance as an ultimate athlete. Brian has a degree in Kinesiology and has been a Strength and Conditioning Coach for a decade and a half. He has also been playing ultimate since high school.

Brian walks us through what frisbee players get right and areas where we should focus more in terms of joint and tendon health. In our experience, many high level players regularly deal with tendinopathy, because they haven't built the capacity to handle the demands of practice, games, and tournaments. Brian's programming targets exactly that.

His certifications include:

Functional Range Strength Coach

Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist (CSCS)

Functional Range Conditioning Mobility Specialist

Functional Range Assessment Specialist

Licensed Kinstretch Instructor

Speed and Agility Coach

High School Strength & Conditioning Coach

Level 1 Precision Nutrition Coach
