The VIS Physical Preparation team is dedicated to maximising the physical capabilities and performances of VIS athletes.
About
The Physical Preparation team plans and designs programs that meet the sporting and individual needs of each athlete.
Programs incorporate all elements of athlete preparation, including:
- sport specific conditioning and physical adaptation
- rehabilitation and injury prevention programs
- movement analysis - on-field and gym based
- strength and power development
- regeneration and recovery strategies
- mobility and flexibility programs
- planning and monitoring athlete workloads
Staff members in the VIS gym have a broad range of experience not only in strength and conditioning but also coaching, sport science disciplines (physiology/biomechanics), research and high-level sport competition. This variety assists in the application of innovative, holistic yet highly specific training programs for VIS athletes. Staff are constantly evaluating new methods of physical training to incorporate into athlete training programs, via regular workshops, in-house tutorials and the latest literature.
