S&C coaches are uniquely positioned to understand the psychological pressures that accompany athletic performance.

In this insightful presentation by Clive Brewer from the UKSCA 2024 conference, Clive takes us through his experiences in elite athletic performance, including working with top-tier athletes and organisations. He shares valuable lessons on rehab processes, plyometric progressions, and how culture impacts team performance.

This question is, does over-protection reduce resilience if a balance between protection and exposure to stress is needed for growth and adaptability.

The coach needs a comprehensive understanding of motivation to construct a positive training environment that is sensitive to the elemental motives of the athletes.

Work-life balance is a myth; You are not your job; Protecting your boundaries; Beyond a coach. Hard questions discussed.

At some point in our careers and our personal lives all of us will have faced doubts and questioned ourselves. This should never be considered as unusual or even as a sign of weakness.

Authenticity in coaching means aligning with core values, but true growth comes from adapting and evolving, not rigidly sticking to a fixed "true self."

Bill's presentation centres on WHY he arrived at his current model of reconditioning.
