Really happy to see this paper come out. It is only a case study, but the reversal of a central core tendinopathy in a professional athlete is significant. Thanks to the performance staff and the athlete for their work on this project journals.humankinetics.com/d…

“The technology and data will never affect the outcome, the people interpreting that data will”. Impt message from @darrenburgess25 @UKSCA. It applies to so many other aspects in elite sports eg the data on scans, investigations, bloods, nutrition etc is all about interpretation

This was Japan’s dressing room after heart breaking injury-time defeat by Belgium. They left it spotless... and even a note saying ‘thank you’ in Russian. #sweepthedecks trainingground.guru/articles…

Nordics not only prevent hamstring injury, but they make you about 4% faster over 10m, about 40cm enough to win the ball & maybe the game

No changes in length required when increasing your running speed from 80 to 100%, but the forces increase (non linearly) by 50% & 70% (positive & negative work)
Be very careful progressing your running speed clinically: 10%asked increase might mean 40%negative work increase – at Barcelona, Spain
