Assessing movement quality, monitoring fatigue and enhancing recovery with Dave Hamilton (Director of Performance Science at Tampa Bay Buccaneers)

In this episode of the Pacey Performance Podcast, I am speaking to the Director of Performance Science at Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Dave Hamilton. This is a part 2, 4 and a half years in the making and a lot has changed. Dave has gone from USA Field Hockey to Penn State University to Tampa Bay Buccaneers, holding the title of Director of Performance Science at each one. In this episode, I wanted to chat about some of the areas we covered 4 years ago and get Dave's up to date perspective. But I also wanted to dive a little bit deeper into Dave's thoughts on some new areas which are listed below.

If you enjoyed this episode, check out my first chat with Dave on episode #42.
