Lachlan Wilmot is in his seventh season as the Senior Athletic Performance Coach for the GWS Giants, an AFL Club based in Sydney. Prior to this he spent time with the AIS-AFL Academy and NSW/ACT AFL Academy.

In this show, Lachlan and I take a deep dive into the world of plyometrics. We discuss the biggest mistakes coaches are making, how he uses contrast training with great success, and then get down to brass tax, talking training days, sets, reps, and even force vectors.

Here's a brief overview of what we covered in this show:

* MR Intro: Why YOU should "Sweep the Sheds"
