Strength and conditioning from a professional rugby player’s perspective with Rob Harley (Professional Rugby Player at Glasgow Warriors)

In this episode of the podcast I am speaking with Glasgow Warriors and Scotland flanker, Rob Harley. I have wanted for so long to get a professional athlete on the podcast to get their perspective on strength and conditioning and sports science and after speaking with Gordon Rennie who used to work at the Warriors, he recommended I speak with Rob. Rob is an avid Tim Ferriss fan so as soon as I heard that I knew that he maybe thought about things slightly differently and would no doubt give us a great perspective on what we are all talking about.

In this episode you will learn -

• Who is Rob Harley (background and playing experience)
• Thoughts on strength training and his first exposure to it
• What is the role of an S&C coach
• How to present data to players
• Giving players freedom within a structure in gym sessions and warm ups
• How can S&C coach's increase their impact on players
