Craig 'Lawman' Lawless.... The man qualified in every sport known to man, the voice of reason to all, lets us in to find out what he's all about....

Whilst most other College lecturers use their summer holidays to recharge their batteries, instead, I throw myself into the summer and autumn, directing and coaching within our on track programme.

My main focus within the company is developing our on track concept through creating innovative training. The training and fitness recommendations herein are based on experience, personal research and analysis of the results we get when we try new methods of training.  For me, the key to improving fitness is not simply doing the training which has been advised. It is understanding how one is responding and adapting to the training and then modifying the programme to meet individual requirements. This guidance is mixed with: random challenges, specific physical tests, play, and a sports science approach to achieving the desired performance goals.

This year, I was selected to work with Snowsport GB and the Children’s Alpine Ski Team. My first FIS race out in the Czech Republic with the athletes was great fun and a fantastic experience for me both in terms of putting theory into practice with our future stars.

As well as trying to get the old golf handicap below 18, I’m currently involved in developing a sports science and coach education programme for my local boys soccer club. Having watched them recently, I’ve certainly got my work cut out that’s for sure!
