Every athlete experiences injury at some stage. The initial assessment and possible surgery are shocking, but the long, seemingly endless, path to recovery is full of frustration and boredom. We aim, in consultation with your medical team, to accelerate and enhance your rehabilitation experience. Having thoroughly assessed your case, we conduct a series of practical tests (2-3 sessions), tailored to your stage of rehabilitation. These include: a strength and conditioning screen to identify the injury's impact on strength, power, balance and flexibility; a sports specific movement analysis to see how your movements now respond to the demands of your sport; a RMR analysis to assess your energy needs; and a 1-1 consultation to discuss your current fears and uncertainty and future objectives. Having got the data, we start planning your path back. We provide: a progressive, sports specific, strength and conditioning program; a dietary plan to support training but also manage weight gain; and provide techniques to build mood, self-confidence and goal orientation during this frustrating time. We also help you implement the plan, providing: 6 tailored personal coaching and personal conditioning sessions; weekly dietary assistance and meal planning; 2 back-to-action preparation sessions, helping you overcome remaining mental or physical barriers; and contact with a personal coach via skype/phone (2 hours per month) and e-mail (unlimited). Finally, we reassess you at the end of rehab to ensure compensatory asymmetries that have arisen as a result of injury are identified and addressed. Over 30 hours of dedicated support in a package worth over £2,000 (if bought separately). Move forwards!

Your dedicated sports scientist is matched to you due to their knowledge and understanding of your circumstances. At an initial consultation we discuss your personal and sporting background and your ambitions for the future. We introduce you to our team and explain how we can assist you. At a series of 3-4 assessment sessions we test your mental preparedness, physiological capacity, technical capabilities and nutritional habits. We assess: musculoskeletal foundation, neuromuscular power generation, dynamic movement competency, cardiovascular conditioning (anaerobic capacity, lactate threshold and VO2Max), respiratory function (inspiratory muscle strength, dynamic lung function), technical aptitude and sports specific skills, body composition and energy metabolism (including RMR), sports nutrition strategy (incorporating sweat test) and dietary habits. We discuss test results, providing a report to your coaches (if desired). In consultation, we identify areas for improvement and analyse your existing training regime to see what adjustments can be made, either designing completely new programs or adapting your existing ones. Such programs cover strength, conditioning, sport specific training and a full nutrition plan (for home and sport, including training and racing). We provide iterations of these programs as you progress, for 6 months. Once the plan is in place, we help you implement it. Key personal coaching, conditioning and biomechanical support is available to you (7 hours total) for 1-1 sessions. We give you access to our on-line dietary resources (recipes, cooking tips, preferred suppliers, selected supplements, etc). And we offer 3 race consultations to help you mentally prepare for the challenges ahead. Finally, we support you as you progress by skype/phone (1hr each month) and e-mail (unlimited). Over 70 hours of dedicated professional support and a package of services worth over £4,600 (if bought separately). The difference, captured!

Evolve to achieve your best. We investigate every aspect of your performance - mental, physical, technical and nutritional - and look to improve each aspect, ensuring you develop the capacity to perform at your desired level. After an initial consultation, covering your sporting and injury history and your personal motivations and constraints, we conduct a series of tests, at 3 separate sessions. These give us a comprehensive, objective assessment of your baseline capacity and include: strength assessments (musculoskeletal performance, neuromuscular power, core strength and balance); cardio-respiratory conditioning tests (lactate threshold, VO2Max); sport specific movement analysis (dynamic movement and skills competency); energy metabolism (RMR test); and a 1-1 consultation to discuss your mental approach to training and competition. Once a baseline is established we look for areas to enhance and design training programs in consultation with you. These programs seek to help you improve your performance and protect you against injury, whilst fitting into your everyday life. They include sport specific strength, conditioning and training programs and a sports nutrition plan, for training and racing. Each program is adjusted 3-4 times as you progress and covers 6 months of training and competition. Additionally, we include 3 x 1-1 conditioning sessions, 3 x 1-1 coaching sessions and 2 x 1-1 race consultations. The first coaching and conditioning sessions run through the program basics and the second and third assess progress. The race consultations take place by arrangement and assist you in your mental preparation and race strategy. Finally, we support you as you progress by skype/phone (1hr each month) and e-mail (unlimited). Over 60 hours of dedicated professional support and a package of services worth over £3,000 (if bought separately). Achieve your best!

Our comprehensive assessment of your sports nutrition requirements, we review your current approach, assess your physiology and then provide a report detailing suggested adjustments you should make. Once you have booked your session we will send you a questionnaire and food training and competition diary for you to fill in. This will give us the necessary background to tailor your visit. When at our facility we will conduct a RMR test and, finally, a VO2 Max test. Our report will be able to provide you with a thorough understanding of how your physiology extracts energy. We will provide recommendations for your training and competition requirements, nutrition, hydration and electrolytes.

For middle and long course trathletes and cycling time trialists our Notio based aerodynamic assessment will enable cyclists of all abilities to optimise their TT position, with invaluable data captured on the road. Unlike a wind tunnel or computer generated assessment this is conducted on your bike on the road and the data collated and interpreted by our biomechanist. We report back to you within 7 days, detailing results, interpreting them for you and providing training recommendations.

This service aims firstly to identify and evaluate any hurdles that you may have and secondly to explore what strategies are most likely to help you surmount them. We explore with you (or your nominated team leader) any recent performance or training issues and how you consider they arose. We discuss with you motivations, feelings during competition and training. We may ask for a more detailed insight into group dynamics or the wider situation (which you are perfectly free not to discuss). We explore possible hurdles and suggest certain strategies to help overcome them, in the context of your sport. If you are a group, we ask each member and, if applicable, your coach to complete a questionnaire separately prior to the consultation and report back our findings to your nominated team leader. Wider group seminars can be conducted by arrangement.

Your dedicated, CRB checked, sports scientist is matched to you due to their knowledge and understanding of your sport and circumstances. At an initial meeting, we discuss your personal and sporting background and your ambitions for the future (adults are welcome). You meet our team and we explain how we will assist you. At a series of 3 x 2-3 hour assessment sessions we test your mental preparedness, physiological capacity, technical capabilities and nutritional habits. This includes: sport specific simulations to test mental robustness; musculoskeletal screen, dynamic movement analysis and functional explosive power test to assess athleticism; lactate threshold, VO2Max, anaerobic capacity and dynamic lung function tests to identify cardio-respiratory capacity; further sports specific simulations to determine skill levels, particularly anticipation and tactical awareness; sweat and RMR tests, body composition scan and dietary review to analyse nutritional habits. Testing protocols have been adapted to engage young athletes. They are: age, gender and maturation appropriate; and interesting, informative and enjoyable. We discuss test results, providing a report to you, responsible adults and coaches (if desired). In consultation, we identify areas for improvement and analyse your existing training regime to see what adjustments can be made, either designing completely new programs or adapting your existing ones. Such programs cover strength, conditioning, skill acquisition, dynamic movement drills and a detailed nutrition plan (for home and sport) We provide iterations of these programs as you progress, for 6 months. Once the plan is in place, we help you implement it. Key 1-1 coaching, conditioning, skill acquisition and competition intensity sessions provide training support (10 hours total). We provide dietary recommendations (recipes, cooking tips, preferred suppliers, selected supplements, etc). And we offer 2 competition consultations, one focussed on your mental preparation, the other on competitive nutrition strategy. Finally, we support you as you progress by skype/phone (1hr each month) and e-mail (unlimited). Over 35 hours of dedicated professional support and a package of services worth over £2,600 (if bought separately). Stretch yourself to achieve!

Our Ready to Play offer gives you the support you need to safely return to sport and to perform capably, building a foundation that will enable you to flourish in the future. Initially, we will meet with you to learn more about you and, in 2-3 sessions, conduct a series of assessments, focussed heavily on your physiology, technique and diet. These will include: a musculoskeletal screen, functional movement analysis and body composition test to assess your preparedness for sport; a neuromuscular power assessment and appropriate technique analysis to evaluate your power and how well you apply it to dynamic movement; and a RMR and sub-maximal VO2Max Test to assess your cardiovascular fitness. Following testing, we will develop appropriate programs that: help you meet your sporting ambitions; maximise your chances of remaining injury free; and, perhaps most importantly, fit around your life and your constraints. This will include strength & conditioning and training programs specific to your sport and your level of competence. Each program will be adjusted 3-4 times as you progress and cover the first 6 months of your return to sport. Additionally, we will provide 2, 1-1 personal conditioning sessions and 2, 1-1 personal coaching sessions. The first session in each, will demonstrate the program basics to you and the second will assess your progress. Finally, we will help you as you progress by skype/phone (1hr each month) or e-mail (unlimited).

Our dietary plan is based around you and your physiology. We analyse you and your family's existing dietary habits through a combination of questionnaire, nutrition diary and interview (skype, phone or in person). If you do not have baseline physiological data we conduct body composition, sweat, RMR and VO2Max tests (at a significantly discounted rate of £100 pp). From this data we build a dietary plan for your daily life, your training and your competition. This provides a sample weekly meal schedule, sample recipes, cooking tips and shopping/sourcing advice. We also give you access to our Diet Evolution resources (recipes, food blogs, preferred suppliers list). Supplementation guidance for each family member is also offered. Finally, a training and competition specific nutrition strategy is provided.

The Resting Metabolic Rate Test determines the amount of energy (calories) your body utilises at rest by measuring O2 uptake and CO2 output. The test identifies: the heart rates where most ‘bodyfat’ is burned; the calories burned at rest and the type of fuel (fats c.f. carbohydrates) burned; how many calories to eat to put on weight whilst avoiding putting on ‘bodyfat’ or to lose weight without going into starvation mode. It is advisable not to eat or drink (save water) for 8-12 hours before and exercise should be avoided the day before. You will relax in a chair, wearing a face mask and heart rate monitor, whilst your O2 uptake, CO2 output, and heart rate are taken for 15-20 mins. It is very important that you remain as relaxed as possible to get the most accurate results.

Suitable for all ages and all abilities: beginners; masters; triathletes; open water endurance swimmers. These sessions can help you improve and refine your swimming, gain water confidence and make technical adjustments for wetsuit, open water or pool-based competitive swimming. Once booked, you will be sent a background questionnaire, so that we can tailor your session. Our swimming biomechanist will initially conduct a poolside review of your biomechanics and physiology to determine your conditioning. The bulk of the session takes place in our 13x4m indoor heated pool with a fastlane (https://www.endlesspools.co.uk/fastlane.php). You will swim against the current at varying speeds, remaining static in the water, so that your technique can be analysed. We record you using a combination of cameras and assess your symmetry and force production using 3D IMU sensors. Immediate feedback is given poolside and reports (including video) provided within 3 days including training recommendations.

Efficiency and economy are critical factors in cycling performance. These are driven by biomechanics and can be improved. We start by reviewing personal background, cycling history, current equipment and future goals. Our functional cycling screen then assesses movement capacity and competency and musculoskeletal and neuromuscular physiology. Next, we look in detail at your biomechanics. We assess lower limb kinetics and determine foot biomechanics using IMU sensors. On the bike we assess cycling position (joint angles, asymmetries and muscular activation), pedalling efficiency (recording your pedal stroke in two planes) and cardio-respiratory economy. Finally, we determine your power output bi-laterally at various levels of resistance. During the assessment we will adjust your bike set up and discuss your riding comfort to find a more optimal position. Assessments are conducted on both the Wattbike Pro and your own bike (if available). We report back to you within 7 days, detailing results, interpreting them for you and providing training recommendations.

Our running technique assessments are conducted by degree qualified sports scientists who specialise in biomechanics. Balanced biomechanics, form, and technique are key factors in running faster and injury-free. Good form helps create and maintain linear momentum, reduce joint impact, minimize energy loss and maximize efficiency and economy. We familiarise ourselves with your running history, injury history and current goals and then conduct a movement screen looking at joint mobility, muscle flexibility, stability and overall movement control. We also use a 3D IMU system to analyse loading efficiency. Finally we conduct a visual and video assessment at varying intensities. This allows us to assess how your body reacts to changes in movement, any weaknesses and the underlying causes. A report explaining results and recommendations is provided.

Our market-leading technical assessment is fully comprehensive, evaluating movement efficiency and economy in your sport. Similar analyses are often conducted in a single plane of motion, but our analysis determines the critical movement patterns in your sport and then tests you against these patterns. The rotational, explosive and impact movements in netball. The simpler dynamic running patterns in rugby and football. Or the even simpler uni-planar motions in cycling and running. We tailor our kinematic and kinetic analyses to your sport. Tests will be preceded by a brief questionnaire and will take 1-2 hours depending on the complexity of the sport. The results of the assessments will be presented in a report which will highlight strengths and weaknesses and provide recommendations.

Our VO2 Max Test is conducted using the Korr Cardio Coach CO2, to provide a reliable indicator of aerobic capacity. It can be conducted sub-maximally on the treadmill or bike, whilst wearing a mask. We can also perform a maximal test for more advanced athletes. A report explaining results and recommendations is provided.

This service is focussed upon musculoskeletal health and neuromuscular performance. Our proprietary assessment gives a full picture of the foundations each athlete is built around. This involves: assessing musculoskeletal health in the context of injury history; testing power and strength using free weights; assessing proprioception, core strength and balance; and determining flexibility and plyometric capacity. You undergo a progressive series of activities involving moderate to high levels of exertion which will provide a good overall picture of strength and conditioning, wholly independent of their specific sport. The results of the assessments will be presented in a report which will highlight strengths and weaknesses and provide recommendations.

Power, the force which you can exert in a given time, is critical to many sporting activities. It is a good measure of your neuromuscular system. Our ergometer tests (which are quite exertive) determine peak power output and average power output for the lower or upper body or both. In a number of sports (e.g. rowing, cycling) these measures have been shown to be good predictors of performance. Power data can be effective in determining training parameters and race strategies. We couple our ergometer tests with free weight (e.g. barbell squats) and movement tests (e.g. counter movement jumps) to get a more general idea of your neuromuscular performance. Our reports will provide useable training baseline data as well as summary conditioning recommendations.

Musculoskeletal screening uses specific standardised tests and procedures to gain information on, inter alia, your range of motion, flexibility, core strength and functional strength. The purpose of the screening is to highlight any previous injury and its effects on performance and conditioning, and any inefficiencies which could be a pre determining factor to injury. We discuss your injury history, your activities and sporting habits. The screening takes 30-45 minutes of mild to moderate exertion and we will report back on issues found during the screening process. Musculoskeletal screening is a safe effective way of assessing the body for areas that can be improved. So if you are trying to shave time off your PB on your bike, improve your marathon time or you want to return or take up a new sport, screening could benefit you.

Our advanced dietary assessment, we review current dietary habits, assess physiology and report back, suggesting adjustments you should make. Our dietary analysis has three steps. Firstly, you complete a questionnaire and comprehensive food and hydration diary. Secondly, we discuss your diet, food preparation habits, where and what food is bought and what supplements are taken (including their source). Finally we conduct a healthy cooking review at your kitchen or ours. When with us we conduct a RMR test. Our report provides you with a thorough understanding of your current physiology and a critique of your dietary habits. We provide dietary recommendations and training and competition strategies, including nutrition, hydration and electrolyte requirements.

You started with the best objectives: get fit; lose weight; achieve one of your goals. But life or injury or both has got in the way: is it really worth it? We want you to achieve what you set out to do, but will give you realistic advice if it is not possible. Our free, 30min consultation helps us determine if we can help you and you determine whether you have the time and energy. If we both decide to carry on, we quickly conduct our assessments: a strength and conditioning screen; cardiovascular conditioning tests; sports specific movement analysis; and RMR tests. These give us a much fuller picture of your race preparedness and current conditioning, from which we can develop highly bespoke training programs. Such programs cover all your training in the lead into the race (strength & conditioning, cardiovascular conditioning and sport specific technical training) and provide a race nutrition strategy, tailored to your physiology. Once this plan is in place we help you implement it. 2 personal conditioning or personal coaching sessions are included (more can be added) to take you through the programs and help you with any technical adjustments. A member of staff is available by e-mail to answer any questions. And, we also plan a competition consultation, to allay your fears and re-motivate you for the race itself, and a race strategy consultation, to help you plan your race and race nutrition. In total, we will spend over 20 hours, dedicated to getting you over the line and the services you will receive as part of this package are worth over £1,200 if bought separately. Get back on track!

The Step Up program builds functional foundations that help you develop, whilst giving you a glimpse of the dedication and focus it takes to excel. Groups of up to 3 are welcome but should have similar sporting interests (e.g. dynamic team sports; explosive sports; endurance sports - contact us if uncertain). Initially, we meet to learn more about you and subsequently conduct 2 testing sessions (2-3hrs each), focussed on strength and conditioning foundations and sports specific skill levels. These include: a musculoskeletal screen, dynamic movement analysis and body composition test to assess preparedness for sport; an assessment of explosive power and how well you apply it to dynamic movements to analyse movement competency; a sub-maximal VO2Max Test to test cardiovascular fitness; and bespoke activities which assess sport specific skills, anticipation and tactical awareness. The importance of all the tests is clearly explained and they are adapted both to suit and engage youth athletes. Following testing, we develop programs which: develop the correct sporting foundations; increase resilience to injury; and fit in with other commitments. These include: a strength & conditioning training program tailored to you and your sport; and a sports specific skill acquisition and dynamic movement skills program. The programs are progressed 3-4 times over a 6 month period. To help follow the programs the package includes 2 x personal conditioning, 2 x personal coaching and 2 x skill acquisition sessions. More sessions can be purchased at a discounted rate if desired. Finally, we provide mentoring, support and guidance via e-mail (unlimited). Over 25 hours of dedicated professional support and a package of services worth over £1,750 (if bought separately). Fun times!
