GUESTS:
Andrew Usher is the performance specialist at Evolved Performance, where he works with a range of athletes, ranging from amateur boxers to world champion boxers such as Hannah Rankin. He hold a Masters of Research degree in Sport and Exercise science from Roehampton University, where he researched the underpinning physiology of amateur boxing and caffeine in combat sports.

He is currently undertaking his PhD at Abertay University, where he is looking at the underpinning physiology of professional boxing, especially in regard to training load and recovery.

John is a senior lecturer in exercise physiology at Abertay University, Dundee. He has a PhD looking at protein metabolism in response to exercise and nutrition. A major focus of his research has been on sprint interval training, and he is viewed as one of the leading experts in this training modality. Currently a major research focus is the physiological responses to sprint interval training that improve recovery of athletes during competition, for example within and between rounds in combat sports.
