Description

This is an episode that is focused on the wellbeing of a player. First we explore the importance of sleep, alongside the positive and negative effects on performance (2.00). This is followed by 'quick-fix' steps to improve the quality and structure of sleep. 

Conditioning is also explored (11.15). With games coming every 2-3 days, it is important to ensure you are able to maintain an exceptional standard and intensity - which is achieved by allowing the body to recovery from physical exertion.

Lastly, support is something that many have but are we utilising enough? This episode concludes with why this is essential during the course of a season (14.00).
