Episode 22: Amit Batra

Today I chat with Poland's Amit Batra. Amit was a really top competitor in ITF Taekwon-Do in the mid to late 2000s, winning the European Championships in 2007 and a World silver medal in 2009. Since moving away from competition Amit has gone into the Strength and Conditioning side of performance, He has a PhD in Sport Physiology, he is a Sport Scientist and is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist. He now works as the S&C Leader for the Polish MMA Association. He also works with a number of athletes and teams from a variety of other sports including Taekwon-Do and football. Today we talk about Amit's competitive career, the uses of tracking and how to manage training load, We talk about the role & how to effectively train plyometrics as well as how to effectively train conditioning especially in Taekwon-Do. I really enjoyed this one and took a lot away from it and hope you will too.
