Our Team
Brendan Chaplin
Founder
I’ve always been intensely passionate about fitness and how to improve sports performance, both personally and professionally and hence in 2010, after gaining years of experience in the field working with thousands of elite athletes, holding many Head Coaching positions with performance sport teams and governing bodies, and delivering hundreds of presentations to coaches in the field I decided to set up the company Strength and Conditioning Education.
