A must-have for any coach managing speed, sprint loads, and injury risk during a hectic GAA season.
Are you using your GPS data effectively—or just collecting numbers?
In this episode, I’m joined by Fionn O’Shea, a performance consultant with elite experience across Gaelic Games, rugby league, and AFL. We explore how to move beyond "distance covered" and start using GPS data to actually improve your training design and player readiness.
Here’s what we cover:
The most important GPS metrics (and which ones to ignore)
How to structure your training week using match demands
Max speed, sprint distance, HSR, axels/d-cells, and meters per minute
Managing subs, small groups, and limited GPS pods
Club vs intercounty differences in GPS data
How to combine GPS with RPE for smarter coaching decisions
Whether you're a coach with 2 GPS units or a full stack of 20+, this episode will help you plan, monitor, and adapt like a pro.
