Show Notes:
What is the difference between internal and external workload, and how is it impacting your athletes’ performance? This week’s guest is the head performance coach for the Boston Bruins, Kevin Neeld. Kevin is a certified strength and conditioning specialist with a masters in Kinesiology and Exercise Neuroscience, and recently completed his PhD in Rocky Mountain University’s Human and Sport Program. With his previous experience working as the assistant strength and conditioning coach for the San Jose Sharks for two years, and as the director of programming and performance in the private sector for seven, we’ll discuss Kevin’s lessons and philosophies he learned from both the private and public sectors. Then, we unpack his PhD journey and two published articles concerning workload demands and monitoring. What are internal and external workloads and what is their value? How do you apply modifications based on metrics? What is the ideal balance for team performance? We’re covering all of this and more as we explore the impact of workloads on high performance ice hockey!
