Battle Ready: Preparing Human Beings for Contact, Physically & Psychologically | Coach Scott Leech
Description
Scott Leech is the Head Strength & Conditioning coach at the University of Rhode Island, a D1 Football Program. He is a pioneer in the area of “contact prep”, implementing & rigorously planning contact dosing into off and pre-season workouts for his football athletes. Scott has thought long and hard about athletes’ needs in terms of contact, both physically & psychologically, and in this episode he shares some of his ideas & observations on what it takes to prepare human beings for the unique and sometimes crazy demands of contact & collision sports. This is a must listen for both athletes and coaches in any contact & collision based sport, be it rugby league, union or football - or as Scott mentions, the many other sports where contact is part of the game and likely under prepared for!
In this regard he has created a number of courses and online resource packages available online to help coaches make informed decisions around contact & conditioning, including “Contact Prep” and the “Gridiron Warrior” packages.
