Comparison of strength training vs strength plus micro-dosed swing speed training in golf on clubhead speed, efficiency of strike / smash factor and physical capacity in university golfers.

Examination of full and modified FMS™ scores in football players, exploring links with sprint speed, jump performance and movement quality across sex, age and playing position.

Explores the rationale for immediate post-match lower-body resistance training in elite soccer during congested fixture schedules, examining recovery demands, strength maintenance, injury risk and applied programming strategies used within a UEFA Champions League environment.

Learn how to implement and interpret the countermovement rebound jump (CMRJ) to assess slow and fast stretch-shortening cycle performance within a single, time-efficient test.

Longitudinal study examining Nordic hamstring exercise performance during fixture congestion, highlighting eccentric strength stability, limb asymmetry, and implications for injury prevention in professional football.

Explore how swing speed training impacts clubhead speed, ball velocity and carry distance in elite golfers, comparing driver vs speed stick protocols.

Associations between maximal muscle strength, power and driver club head speed in elite male and female golfers, with practical training insights.

Richard Pruett explores emotional intelligence, athlete-centred coaching, and communication skills for strength & conditioning success.

Dr Phil Scott explores humanising innovation in coaching—linking empathy, communication, and performance for S&C coaches and sport scientists.

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

Dr. Jamie Tallent shared valuable insights at the UKSCA 2024 conference, focusing on micro-dosing and high-frequency training strategies in elite performance environments. His work with organisations like the Royal Ballet and elite sports teams demonstrates how adapting training can optimise physical performance, even in high-load environments.

UKSCA 2024 Annual Conference. Phil dives into his experience transitioning from the Olympic sports world to working with the Australian Air Force, applying sports performance principles to occupational readiness for the tactical athlete.

Dr. Chris Bishop delivered a thought-provoking session at the UKSCA 2024 Annual Conference, focusing on the practical application of jump testing as a tool for strength and conditioning professionals. He explored the selection of appropriate metrics, the importance of operational principles, and the utility of force plates for assessing athletic performance.

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