Episode 116 - Gavin Burren

Once an Englishman, now a coach to many and many future greats - This week on the podcast I speak to Gavin Burren (@gburren1500).
Hailing from Knox, Gav is coach to the likes of @abbeycaldwelll @lachlan_herd and @lissyduncs. With a roster of such calibre, it was all the more exciting to get the opportunity to talk coaching and “winning” with Gav.
On the pod, we discuss a number of topics - ultimately unravelling what has made Gav such a successful coach.
Sharing in my belief, he explains the power in group training and just how powerful good training partners/squads can be. That quite often it is the team that surrounds the athlete that takes them that extra step.
Just as so, it’s the relationship that athletes share with their coaches rather than the programming of training that makes such a dynamic a success.
Gavin provides an honest and humble insight into his philosophy, common training practices, mistakes, and learnings from years in the sport.
With the recent breakthroughs his athletes have made, especially the near-olympic selection quality of Abbey and Mellissa - such insight is gold for athletes and coaches alike!
