In a recent study of 8 million scientists published in PLoS Biology, Dr. Gabbett was named in the Top 25 most impactful sport scientists of all time.

In this episode, Dr. Gabbett will be talking to us about the progression of training loads to minimize injury risk and enhance performance. Many of us are aware that when progressing an athlete from rehabilitation to peak performance, a balance exists between providing an adequate training stimulus to elicit performance benefits and minimizing the risk of injury. The question is, how can we determine how much training is too much? How soon can training loads be progressed following injury? How quickly can athletes return to competition?
