In this SW7 Academy Open Gym Podcast, we sit down for a conversation about what it takes to build a career in professional sport. From the early years and breaking through, to staying at the top and adapting throughout your career.
The conversation covers training, recovery, mindset, performance, life as a professional athlete and the lessons that come from years spent competing at the highest level.
We also look at how the right training and development from a young age can help athletes build strong foundations for the future, both on and off the pitch.
