Manage episode 406040411 series 2665516
This EP features Strength and Conditioning Coach, and High-Performance Manager with the Canadian Armed Forces, Elliott Richardson. His background includes experience as an athlete, coach, mentor, educator, presenter, and integrator of disciplines to optimize human performance.
Before he transitioned to working with the military population, he spent almost a decade as a Strength and Conditioning Coach and Sports Performance Manager with Acadia University. There he oversaw a team of multidisciplinary staff and interns supporting over 300 Varsity athletes across 10 teams.
He also built a private business - Acadia Performance Training - that served three functions: serve the community and provincial athletes, generate revenue to support Varsity staffing positions and provide an opportunity for coaches to develop their skills. While at Acadia, he also taught in the school of kinesiology.
His coaching career began after a three-year career in the Canadian Football League with Edmonton and Saskatchewan. His goal when transitioning to coaching was to provide athletes with the opportunities that he didn't have growing up and provide mentorship to coaches that he wished he had started. He now lives in Ontario with his wife and three kids.
