Pacey Performance Podcast

The fifth episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast sees me speaking with Head of Athletic Development for Huddersfield Town FC's academy, Dan Hughes. I have known Dan for almost 5 years now and have kept in touch since he left Doncaster Rovers and I filled his shoes. Dan speaks about how he got where he has, his recent experiences of stepping up to first team duties and how he structures his in-season strength sessions for both the academy and first team. Dan offers another great perspective to S&C and also shows how Huddersfield Town FC provide an all-round support service for their players.  Don't forget to subscribe to the Pacey Performance Podcast and leave a comment at paceyperformance.co.uk Follow me on twitter @paceyperform and like my facebook page at facebook.com/paceyperformance Dan can be found on Twitter @danhughes333 Enjoy PP

This episode goes in a slightly different direction with ex Sale Sharks, Leeds Carnegie and England rugby union player Andy Titterrell, giving his unique thoughts on strength and conditioning practice he has come across in his time as a pro. As well as playing, Andy has experience as a strength and conditioning coach in his own right with Leeds Carnegie's academy, University of Liverpool and through his own business. Andy talks about the guys who have influenced his own practice, how he juggled life as a professional player and coach, and his thoughts on current S&C practice in rugby union. Andy offers such a unique perspective and his thoughts as an ex pro and current practitioner are invaluable.  Don't forget to subscribe to the Pacey Performance Podcast and leave a comment on www.paceyperformance.co.uk Follow me on twitter @paceyperform Like my facebook page at facebook.com/paceyperform Andy can be found on twitter @andytitterrell  Thanks for listening PP
