In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast, I am speaking to Performance Coach Consultant, Shayne Murphy. This episode is absolutely incredible! Case studies, reflections, challenging his own thoughts and beliefs, it had the lot. Shayne has a really interesting story, coming over from Ireland to go onto work at one of the biggest clubs in the world and then leaving just 18 months ago to be a full-time consultant. We cover developing quality movement in footballers, the transition from full-time employee to consultant as well as changing the way he think about rehab, and much more.

In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast I am speaking to Director of Performance at Melbourne Storm, Lachlan Penfold. Lachlan has tasted a lot of success across an incredible career. That can of course can be put down to many different factors but in my opinion, success leaves clues. It isn't by chance that he has won the NRL final with Sydney Roosters in 2013, lost in the final of the NBA playoffs with Golden State Warriors, and has won two out of the last three NRL finals with Melbourne Storm. This podcast is a reflection of what has been a fantastic career spanning rugby union, water polo, AFL, NBA and rugby league.
In this episode, we discussed...
Winning environments
Creating a culture of winning
Differences across sports
How did you change?

Influence of a head coach
Where you go for inspiration



Influence from your time in other sports
What did you learn that you still come back to now?


How have players changed over your career?
How have you had to adapt?

In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast, I am speaking to Performance Nutritionist, James Morehen. It's been a while since I had a nutritionist on the podcast and it was an absolute pleasure to get James on the podcast. This episode is titled, 'nutrition for the S&C coach' because there are still so many S&C coaches out there who are acting nutritionists. In smaller organisations, nutrition support often gets put onto the S&C coach or sports scientist so this episode dives into some key concepts that non-nutritionists need to know.
In this episode we discussed...
Who is James Morehen (background, education and current role[s])?
Working within academia
The realities of publishing

The link between S&C and nutrition
The basics for S&C's covering both roles
Focusing on behaviour change
Assessing needs and monitoring progress
Recovery
Injury risk

Body composition
Pre-season vs in-season
Fuelling for such high loads in pre-season

Approaching those that need body composition changes

Demystifying recent trends
Veganism
Intermittent fasting
