  • Summary

  • South African strength & conditioning specialist Dr. Wayne Lombard was the Indian women's hockey team's scientific advisor from 2017 to 2021. He led the coaching staff that took over a struggling team and made them into world-class athletes in time for the Tokyo Olympics, where the unfancied Indian team then went on a wild, fairytale ride all the way to the bronze medal playoffs. In this episode, Dr. Lombard answers some critical questions: how do you assess a player's fitness? How do you build a neuromuscular profile for an athlete? Why is a simple jump called the Countermovement Jump such a great indicator of athletic ability and game readiness? What is the relationship between an athlete's perceived fatigue and what machines tell us about the state of his or her physical fatigue? How can that be bridged?
