I've been working with Jack for several years now. Jack has a deep understanding of the science of swimming and he has helped optimize the training programs to an exceptional level for his swimmers. What sets Jack apart is his ability to translate complex scientific concepts into practical, actionable recommendations for his athletes. He explains the 'why' behind his recommendations, which assist all of his athletes to perform at their best and this is achieved by his ability to understand the physiological responses of each individual athlete he trains, ensuring that the training program he delivers is highly individual and specific to the needs of the athletes body. As a high performance coach, Jack is incredibly supportive and responsive. He is always available to answer athlete questions and provide guidance, and he has developed a strong supportive culture for his athletes. Overall, I would highly recommend Jack to any athlete who is serious about optimizing their swimming performance.
