Strength and conditioning involves an in-depth exploration of exercise programming and the human body to maximise sporting performance. The S&C Performance Specialist course provides learners with an elite level of education by supplying the underpinning theory and tools to translate science into practice. Learners will cover biomechanics of movement, player screening and assessment, advanced programming for strength, power, speed, agility, and energy system development. The aim is to produce graduates who can apply an exceptional level of knowledge in the sport and exercise environment to harness the physiological mechanisms of the human body in order to maximise an individual’s development.

Course Overview

Physical activity and exercise are fundamental to health, human flourishing, and sporting performance. Strength and Conditioning involves understanding how the body works and adapts to exercise in order to generate creative, effective, and acceptable exercise programmes for athletes.

The profession is a combination of coaching, performance improvement, and performance specialist. The course will cover the underpinning anatomy and physiology of health and exercise, nutrition and performance management, athlete motivation, and exercise programming.

Advanced programming components across periodisation, strength and power training, and energy system development will also be covered. Additionally, the boundaries of practice and aspects of professionalism and business acumen will be covered. The aim is to produce graduates who can adapt their programming to maximise the athlete’s goals through their use of exercise programming and motivation approaches.
