Required

Think about how you could use resistance training with yourself (as an athlete) or with athletes that you coach (if you are a coach). In a few sentences, write down how you could incorporate resistance training, based on the evidence it has to support it, into your practice.

A copy of your responses will be emailed to the address you provided.
