So I now officially have my first publication (doi.org/10.1007/s40279-023-0…) under my belt and couldn't be happier that it is with @SportsMedicineJ.
Big thank you to my co-authors @simplysportssci and @LarsDonath as well as all the coaches who took part.
We’re recruiting coaches for a research survey exploring how coaches anticipate changes in training adaptation and performance.
We ask about your experience of predicting how athletes respond to training, including across different timeframes and in different circumstances.
🤖 Made with AI
⏱️ 10 minutes
Eligible if you:
• Currently work with athletes as a coach
• Are 18+
• Are English literate
Sport-specific & strength and conditioning coaches welcome.
Take part → surveyhero.com/c/nxrphbp7
Please share with other coaches who may be interested.
New paper out 📊
We surveyed 100+ Chinese coaches on the role of non-physical factors in training adaptation & performance
Key points:
☑️ NPF viewed as essential modifiers
☑️ Act as modulators shaping “how much” athletes improve
☑️ Not peripheral but central to outcomes
👇
☑️ Broad range of factors considered important
We need to move beyond linear, physical-centric models → towards culturally informed, configurational frameworks

Third paper from my PhD (journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.…). It took a while but got there in the end and learnt some important lessons along the way. Thanks again to my co-authors @simplysportssci and @LarsDonath .

📣 Calling Sports Coaches & Performance Practitioners
@simplysportssci and I are conducting the first research survey to explore the use of Generative AI on decision-making in professional sports roles.

📈It's been said that training adaptations are predictable.
📚Yet practitioners are rarely asked for their thoughts or experiences.
📝However, @simplysportssci @KlattStefanie @LarsDonath & I do want to know YOUR thoughts & experiences.

Had the pleasure of talking with Drew and Alex about my 2nd publication on sports coaches' views about popular planning practices. Really enjoyed talking to the both of them as it feels like grabbing a coffee and having a conversation with two friends.

It is with great sadness the family of John Pilger announce he died yesterday 30 December 2023 in London aged 84. His journalism and documentaries were celebrated around the world, but to his family he was simply the most amazing and loved Dad, Grandad and partner. Rest In Peace.
🆕 #OpenAccess Paper 🆕 New survey exploring coaches opinions on common planning concepts (as featured within training theory) now out in @SportsMedicineJ .
Thanks again so my great co-authors John Kiely (@simplysportssci) and Lars Donath (@LarsDonath) as well as all the coaches who were willing to take part.
