Summary
No fluff, just coaching that works. I sit down with Paudie Roche —former Arsenal & Munster S&C—to cut through tech hype, fads, and social-media hot takes. They get into using AI as an assistant (not a replacement), coaching female athletes the right way, navigating growth & maturation, and the real craft of coaching: tone, buy-in, and adaptability. In-this-playbook Female athletes ≠ small men: training age, buy-in, and building autonomy without dumbing things down. Growth, maturation & bio-banding that actually changes your week: PHV awareness, late vs. early developers, and selection without bias. AI without the hype: let it crunch trends (VBT, readiness, bandwidths) while you coach the room—mood periodisation, post-game top-ups, and load management up and down. Upcoming Webinar – 7th February On the 7th of February, I’ll be speaking at a live webinar hosted by the Italian Strength and Conditioning Society, focusing on leadership and soft skills in high-performance sport .
