In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast, I am speaking to Head of Sports Science and Strength & Conditioning at Crystal Palace FC, Scott Guyett. I am absolutely delighted to get Scott on the podcast today. Scott has incredible experience as a player and a coach, and he also holds his UEFA A license making his story really interesting. I wanted to make this episode as applied as possible so after listening you have some real insight into what goes on behind the scenes at Crystal Palace and hopefully that comes across. Scott and the guys at Palace are incredibly open and it shows in this episode.
Hope you enjoy this episode with Scott Guyett.
