Very proud of this girl who you could describe as a hard gainer. Training with her twice per week for the last 8 months. 10 metre time has gone from 2.42 seconds to 2.07 ( tested with freelap) and squat from 30 kilos to 115 kilos for 3 reps.Huge transfer to her game as well

This is interesting.
During #MUTOUR25, our players are using @adidasFootball ice jackets to keep cool before playing in hot weather 🧊

Congrats to Meath and Dublin ladies who qualified for the All Ireland Final. The fitness of both teams was outstanding and was a key factor in the wins. Well done to the S&C coaches @Dowling_Sami and Eugene Eivers. War has now broken out in our house with two split groups.

This is the first time I have seen Meath LGFA run a structured S&C course like this for the club coaches . €50 is very reasonable.

It was great to see the Meath boss highlight the importance of the S&C work done with the team this year (by David Drake and Phil Cambell) and how this contributed to their great victory today.

Meath manager Robbie Brennan said the conditioning of his team was key to their pulsating All-Ireland SFC quarter-final victory over Galway at Croke Park.

The announcement of @coach_roche_ as a speaker for the @irishscnetwork conference brings me back to my favourite S&C moment of the year.
You realise you are too obsessed with S&C when you bring your daughters to an Arsenal ladies game and while everyone is trying to find the great players on the pitch you are looking for Irish S&C legend Paudie Roche

Interesting article about the importance of Speed in GAA. More than ever at the top of our game, speed is king via @rte.

We can all want every player to have a chance, but, when it comes to the top, maybe more than it ever was, speed is king, writes Enda McGinley.

I think this could be the best explanation I have read about the difference between OL and Jump Squats.
Why choosing the right metric matters: An example. I recently saw a post which argued that because the power output in a jump squat is greater than a power clean that there was no point in OL.

RT @coachcaff: Acceleration in Gaelic Games. I wonder if the new rules have increased this pattern? @DeasunO @SetantaCollege @MarkWhe77164….
