In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast, I am speaking to Director of Sports Science at the Canadian Sports Institute, Calgary, Matt Jordan. This is Matt's second time on the podcast after he featured in episode #46. We revisited a number of topics that we discussed back in August 2015 but also covered a few new areas. Matt is doing some incredible work when it comes to jump analysis and is quite rightly becoming very well known worldwide for this work. If you are interesting in monitoring jumps for performance, fatigue or readiness, this episode does not disappoint.
If you enjoyed this episode with Matt Jordan, you may enjoy these other episodes talking about force plate data - Jason Lake, Daniel Cohen & Phil Graham Smith.
