What a podcast! For this weeks Strength Chat, I spoke with two coaches from The Strength Guys, both having worked with multiple athletes at national and international level, Alfred Jong and Kedric Kwan. Alfred and Kedric work together as a team when it comes coaching, both bringing different areas of expertise and thought processes, but with the main goal of getting it right and the getting the best result for the athlete. From the results and feedback they’ve had from their athletes, it’s definitely something that may become more common in the future. In this episode, we covered the ins and outs of working as a team when coaching an athlete, all things going up weight classes and weight cutting, as well as managing training and the athlete between competitions.
