The purpose of strength and conditioning is to improve performance and reduce the risk of injury through the development of muscular strength, power and muscular endurance.
Within the Sport Wales Institute, our Strength and Conditioning coaches work collaboratively as part of an interdisciplinary team which includes the athlete, coaches as well as the sports science and sports medicine staff to deliver a holistic support programme.
The main role of the strength and conditioning coach is to analyse the physical demands of a sport in relation to the performance objectives and identify the strength and conditioning requirements.
