Episode 278
Sunday, 31 March, 2024
This episode's guest is Tom Tombleson. Tom is the senior strength and conditioning for the England men's rugby team. I first met Tom back in 2017 at an Appentice Coach Programme (ACP) hosted by ALTIS, during my internship with ALTIS. I instantly knew Tom was a person I could connect with on many levels from the interactions and conversations we shared during our time together at ALTIS. On this episode we discuss: Tom's background Tom's training model How Tom assesses and monitors his players with the England team? I ask Tom about his experieces working under different head coaches I ask Tom how his ideas on speed development have changed over his career? How involved is Tom with the technical and tactical preparation of the team? What happens after a major tourament? How much contact does Tom have with the players when they are back with their clubs? How does Tom look after his health? How does Tom build relationships with his co-workers? What are Tom's top and current book recommendations? This was agreat discussion with Tom and I hope you all enjoy it.
