153: Gym-Based Activation Sessions: Football's Best Kept Secret For Improving On-Field Performance

In episode 153, Terry Peters, Performance Coach, joins us. Specifically Terry will be looking at: Why footballers should train in the gym How the gym impacts field based performance How to use activation sessions to improve football performance About Terry: "I worked with the Olympic Committee in Holland, I worked with a variety of sports including Table Tennis, Track Cycling and Volleyball, and I realised I would prefer to work in an environment where I would get to work every day with the same athletes, to get a become more process oriented, rather than being focused on tasks. Then Vitesse Arnhem was at the same location as the Olympic Committee, so I moved there for around 7 years, and met some really good coaches over there. One of them took me to Dubai to work with a team there as a Strength & Conditioning coach, and then I came back to work with Heerenveen in the same role. Then Peter Bosz, who I worked with at Vitesse called me, and asked whether I wanted to come and work at Bayer Leverkusen. I worked at Bayer 04 Leverkusen for 2 seasons before moving for just over a season to Olympique Lyon. Currently i’ve my got own company, TP Performance Coaching, and recently did consultancy work for Jumbo-Visma Roadcycling and a Premier League team. I'm currently waiting for the next big project."
