In episode 30, SSPC Physio Rob O’Donnell takes us inside the Falls Creek altitude training camp of the ON Athletics Club. Living in himself as physio for the ON team, Rob is in the perfect position to see first hand how the team approaches altitude training, a concept not foreign to many elite athletes.
Rob gets Jodie McCann and Bendere Oboya during a break from their intense training, and delves deep into the camp and how altitude training effects their training and their performance.
As well as talking altitude, Rob also takes the opportunity to get Jodie and Bendere to chat about their normal training regimes, strength training, footwear, and technology.
Here is your chance to get an idea of how the elite train, and why altitude training forms such an important part of their program.
