Effective planning and programming can then be implemented to help athletes peak for key tournaments and competitions, whilst training load is strategically monitored and recovery optimised.
This is a course written by one of the UK’s best S&C coaches, which shows you how to implement theory into practice. Start helping your client’s fulfill their athletic potential with the Level 4 qualification in Strength and Conditioning.
