Foundry Strength and Conditioning

Days like this make it all worthwhile ☀️📚🏋‍♂️☕️

Miss this place 🏋‍♂️

Quick back story: In 2017, I left a secure job working as an analytical chemist to pursue this place. Most people saw it as a huge risk and advised me against it. Despite this, I built a solid business from nothing. Six years later, I'm doing a PhD 📚🌱

Thankful for the opportunity to discuss findings from my first PhD. study at the Faculty of Sport and Exercise Medicine Spring Symposium Conference

Sport - Track and field

Events - 100, 200m

Test - Isometric squat hold

Strength classification - Maximal isometric strength

Metrics - Peak force, and relative peak force

🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️💥

A great morning spent discussing all things growth, maturation, and performance testing to the sport and exercise medicine students at Ulster University.

And I just found out that my abstract was accepted to speak at the FSEM Spring Symposium conference next month #😊🤓📚

A less than productive morning followed by a somewhat productive afternoon

It's hard to believe that we are now halfway through our PhD. 🤯

The most humbling experience of my life 🏋‍♂️🧪📚🌱

Recently 📚🏋‍♂️🌱

You don't rise to your goals - you fall to your standards.

It's been a good week 😀📚🏋‍♂️🌱

What I've learnt most since starting my PhD. is that the majority of time is spent problem solving.

Until you understand something, it will naturally feel difficult.

This morning feels like a small win. Problem solved 🙏🏋‍♂️
