Athletes Authority ON AIR | Ep. 189 "Solo Sessions: Why you don’t need to match sport intensities"
In this bite-sized Solo Session, Lachlan dives into some hot topics around team sport training, performance, and the importance of meeting athletes where they are. He discusses the misconception that every exercise must replicate the sport itself and explains why this can lead to overloading athletes or, worse, injuries.
Lachlan also explores the concept of training progression and how small, controlled changes are essential for long-term development, while still being mindful of the individual needs of each athlete.
If you're a coach looking to build smarter, more effective training programs that prioritise athlete health and performance, this quick but packed session is a must-listen.

Athletes Authority ON AIR | Ep. 188 "What It Really Takes: Muay Thai Prep, Pain & Performance"
What It Really Takes: Muay Thai Prep, Pain & Performance
In this episode, S&C coach Anthony Sams sits down with two of his elite Muay Thai athletes—Deren Chen, the current NSW Welterweight WBC Champion, and Ibrahim Abou Saleh, former national champion and multi-title holder who’s represented Australia at the Olympics—for a raw, behind-the-scenes look at life in and out of the ring.
From fight prep and cutting weight to building explosive strength and managing recovery, the boys talk through what really gives them an edge in competition. You’ll hear why conditioning might be the most underrated weapon, how their training changes throughout a fight camp, and the real difference between “just lifting weights” and sport-specific performance.
Plus, there’s plenty of banter, fight-day rituals (yes, showering and haircuts included), and candid thoughts on the gaps most fighters still have in their physical prep.
Whether you’re a fighter, coach, or just curious about what goes into elite-level Muay Thai, this episode is a must-listen.
