Eamonn has also been the Head of Performance Support to a number of Olympic and Paralympic sports over the past 3 Olympic cycles.

And in this episode, we’re going to take a deep dive assessing, coaching and programming plyometrics in your training sessions!

I think the important thing is that you have a long-term plan, either as a strength and conditioning coach, a sprint coach, etc.
