FitWise Podcast
The FitWise Podcast features long-form, honest conversations with the people building performance in elite sport. Hosted by the FitWise team, each episode talks to heads of performance, sports scientists, strength and conditioning coaches and rehab specialists working at the top of European football and beyond. Episodes cover what actually shapes a performance department's week: keeping athletes available, reducing soft-tissue and hamstring injury risk, making sense of load and data, return-to-play, biomechanics and coaching. It also examines how technology is and isn't changing the work on the ground. New episodes are released every two weeks, with clips and written breakdowns shared across FitWise's channels.
