What separates great coaches from the rest? It might be the realisation that the more you learn, the more you realise you don’t know.
In this episode, we sit down with sports scientist and academic Dr. Kym Williams to unpack the journey from the AIS to academia and the lessons learned along the way. We explore the real difference between strength & conditioning and sports science, why the Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well in the industry, and how young practitioners can avoid the trap of thinking they’ve “made it” too early.
We also dive into the future of education, the impact of social media fitness culture, and why the best practitioners are often generalists before specialists.
If you’re a student, coach, or practitioner looking to build a career in sport performance, this conversation is packed with perspective you won’t hear in a textbook.
