Join us for an insightful discussion on the intersection of sports performance and health.

In this episode, hosts Brad and Matt kick things off by reviewing the rain-soaked Zandvoort race, reflecting on the challenging conditions and the unpredictable results. The discussion then shifts to the Italian Grand Prix where it is all about speed and braking force at the Temple of Speed. Will the Tifosi leave happy? Will the drivers hang on to those braking G-forces and not blink?

The discussion then concludes with a great case study on a LisFranc Injury - the ankle sprain to beware if you are not getting better. Listen now to find out more.

Brad and Matt deep dive into the Hungarian Grand Prix, what drivers will be expecting physically and mentally, but maybe more importantly, whom needs a good race before the summer break. No one wants to be the talk of F1 for 3 weeks without giving an answer.

They then break down the role of the performance coach in this, how they help an under-pressure driver execute a race weekend, and what are the key skills and attributes that make a performance coach as Brad’s Sport’s career mentorship gets up and running again.

Back again! Deep diving into all things F1 in this episode, the boys preview Spa a drivers track, and an opportunity to either set the foundations for a title win or grab yourself a seat for next year and it could be all down to what they have been doing these last 2 weeks off….sitting on a beach or training hard and priming yourself to win a title. Find out the boys thoughts on this odd pause in the season.

And with Spa’s history it’s a good moment to introduce new research in F1 and Formula 1 drivers injury rates, what’s improved over the last 73 years and what hasn’t! Find out all in the episode.

The British Grand Prix normally has a bit of everything. Good racing, good weather, bad racing, bad weather. Brad and Matt take a look at what drivers need to have mentally to cope with wet races. How rookie drivers can best prepare for the rain in the lead-up to a potentially wet race, along with how the British Drivers might need to adjust their mental approach for their home race!

They also recap an interesting non-interesting race in Austria with connotations for the title fight and a deep dive into Faith Kipyegon’s attempt to be the first female to break the 4-minute mile. Stunning attempt! Enjoy!

Whoa! We’ve had a lot of sport and a lot of talking points.

The physical and mental demands of the title fight are heating up. Can Lando and Oscar fighting open the door for Max? And finally, a discussion of the Tyrese Haliburton Achilles Tendon Injury in game 7 of the NBA Finals.

A jam-packed episode as EFPT keeps up the record of winning or scoring a podium with every single driver, athlete, team or organisation they work with. Another win in Indycar and a podium in GT3 and British Superbikes.

Brad & Matt also discuss how best to maximise performance during a triple header, which you can apply to everyday life and work, and they dive into the latest research that tackles the age-old argument of whether your core strength matters when it comes to low back pain.

The boys are back from a break of travel before the next block picks up. They deep dive the last few races, give their opinion on who already has the edge in the Drivers championship from a Sports Psychology point of view!

But the biggest race of this week is the London Marathon! And the key…race strategy. Good luck everyone! And then they deep dive on how to recover post running 26.2. Enjoy!

What is going on at Red Bull in the year of the rookies? What a first couple of races, and how are they holding up? The boys dive into the sports psychology of it all, and what it actually takes to be a performance coach in F1, and Yuki’s tremendous turnaround. At the end of the day, everyone can be the same physical fitness, it’s the mental game that makes the difference.

And talking physical fitness, it’s taper time for the London Marathon, which so many people get wrong! 3 weeks to recover from post 20 miles…..and 3 weeks isn’t going to change anything. Get yourself feeling as good and as ready as possible.
