Move the Needle: The Human Performance Podcast
Hunter and Mike: Research to Application & Structuring Learning

On this episode of the podcast, the 114th, we sit down without a guest. Taking advantage of being in-person in the same city, we wanted to carve some time out to talk about a few topics that have been front of mind. We started with a conversation around some of the research that has been coming out within our field and the application to training, some of the shortcomings of what we see in the field and how to help, and we pose the question "Is High-Performance TRULY possible within team sport?"


Individually, find us on social media @coachmikesully and @huntereis_sp
