On episode 32 of the Platform to Perform Podcast I spoke with author of Strength and Conditioning for Combat Sports, Yas Parr. When it comes to working with combat athletes, Yas is one of the brightest minds in the field as we discussed his thoughts on:

· The difference between personal trainers and strength & conditioning coaches, (and how to identify these as a combat athlete looking to improve their physical preparation)

· Sport simulation v training that actually carries over to sport

· Managing asymmetries with combat athletes

· Biobanding being used within youth combat sports
