Building Jacked Athletes: Lean Muscle & Maintaining Athleticism, Integrating Speed Training & Protecting Team Culture | Adam Innes, Toulouse Olympique XIII

Adam Innes is the Head Strength & Conditioning coach for Toulouse Olympique XIII and the France national team in rugby league. An Australian by birth, he's much more than a strength coach and is an integral part of the Toulouse Olympique club, essential to the culture they've built and must maintain in the unique circumstances in which they compete. We cover athlete lifestyles, putting on lean muscle while maintaining the athletic qualities necessary to compete, how to integrate speed work and exposure in team training, as well as lessons learned from a challenging stint in the northern hemisphere's top flight, the Super League. Plus, we address the chatter than Toulouse might return to the top comp and what they would do differently this time around. Adam Innes can be found on Instagram at @adaminnes_performance
