This week, I sat down with Andrew Stuart to talk about what sport science looks like outside of the lab.
Andrew walks through how monitoring and assessment systems are built in environments with limited staff, time, and resources. We discuss needs analysis, selecting meaningful metrics, scaling testing from “bronze to gold,” and building reporting systems that coaches will use.
We also explore how interns are developed in applied sport science roles, what skills matter most early in a career, and how performance monitoring fits into day-to-day coaching rather than sitting on a hard drive.
This episode serves as a preview of Andrew’s upcoming presentation at the Power & Strength Summit and a practical framework for coaches looking to apply sport science without overcomplicating the process.
Enjoy.
