Pacey Performance Podcast

In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast I am speaking to performance coach and director of propelperform. Grant has been on my radar for a while with his interesting views on the strength and conditioning industry and how we engage with athletes, especially the youth athlete. Grant is heavily involved with the ASCA and is very highly thought of, not only down under but across the world as well.

In episode 106 of the Pacey Performance Podcast I have the pleasure with speaking with Performance Physiologist, Mark Kovacs. Mark has an unbelievable CV having worked most notably in tennis and well as numerous other sports. Working as a sports science consultant with the NCAA alongside writing multiple books and book chapters, Mark was a great guest to get on the podcast. Obviously we spoke about his work in tennis but I didn't want to miss the opportunity to speak to him about his work in other sports.

In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast I am speaking to High Performance Manager at Harris & Ross Physiotherapy and former HP Manager at Red Bull, Darren Roberts. This is Darren's second appearance on the podcast and we have a very specific topic in mind with this episode - coach health. Darren has been running a 'performance forum' in Manchester for the last year which invites practitioners to come and share ideas through short presentations and open discussion. These have been a great way to not only share ideas but build a community and I would encourage anyone to follow Darren's lead and start something like this in their corner of the world.

In this episode of the podcast I am speaking with Glasgow Warriors and Scotland flanker, Rob Harley. I have wanted for so long to get a professional athlete on the podcast to get their perspective on strength and conditioning and sports science and after speaking with Gordon Rennie who used to work at the Warriors, he recommended I speak with Rob. Rob is an avid Tim Ferriss fan so as soon as I heard that I knew that he maybe thought about things slightly differently and would no doubt give us a great perspective on what we are all talking about.

In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast I am speaking to newly appointed Director of Performance Services at the Canadian Sports Institute, Jeremy Sheppard. This is Jeremy's second outing on the podcast with his first coming back in episode 28 when he was working for Surfing Australia. Jeremy's enthusiasm is infectious and it was great to hear that he is loving being back home in Canada and how he is making the most of the outdoor lifestyle.

In episode 102 of the Pacey Performance Podcast I have the pleasure to speak with Head of Physiology at Aspire, Marco Cardinale.

In episode 101 of the Pacey Performance Podcast I am speaking to Performance Manager at the Seattle Sounders in the MLS, Dave Tenney. Dave first appeared on the podcast back in 2014 so it was great to get him on again and see how things have progressed at the Sounders. I visited Dave over in Seattle last year at the Sounders conference and I would definitely recommend heading out there next summer to hear the best in the business talk shop and have a beer.

Never in a million years did I think this podcast would get to episode #100, let alone be able to get the likes of Dan Baker to appear as a guest. I have been pestering Dan for a LONG time now and I was so pleased that we were able to line it up for this episode. Dan is one of the leading figures in the industry and has become a specialist in the area of strength & power and in particular 'velocity based training'.

Thank you so much for all the support you have all given the podcast over the last 2 and a half years. I have some exciting things coming up over the next few months which will hopefully add some great content from some great practitioners to the field.

In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast I am speaking to lead strength & conditioning coach at the Irish Institute of Sport, Eamonn Flanagan. Eamonn has become a leading figure in velocity based training as well as the use of RSI in the applied world. I was fortunate to meet Eamonn in Ireland earlier this year and have a tour around the new facility at the Institute which is extremely impressive. I hope you enjoy this chat as much as I did.

Almost 18 months after the last roundtable podcast I did, in this episode we have our third, the Special 'Youth Football' Edition featuring Paul Bower (Barnsley FC), Luke Jenkinson (Sheffield United FC) and Kevin Paxton (Leicester City FC). I loved the previous 2 roundtable podcast I did and have tried to line up a few more over the last few months, but it has proved very difficult with how busy peoples schedules are. So, I am delighted to get these guys on for a chat about youth football and I thank them for their patience and cooperation in making this happen.
