About the role
This interview tests whether you can turn sports science into safe, practical training that improves performance. The panel is looking for sound programme design, clear coaching, sensible use of athlete data and constructive work with coaches and medical staff.
How to prepare
- Revise how you profile the physical demands of a sport and translate them into training priorities.
- Prepare an example of a programme you changed after testing, athlete feedback or a congested schedule.
- Practise explaining one compound lift and one speed drill in short, observable coaching cues.
- Review how you record session load, recovery information and return-to-training restrictions.
- Think through how you would defend a training decision when another coach wants a different priority.
Common mistakes
- Naming exercises without connecting them to the athlete's needs or competition demands.
- Treating monitoring numbers as decisions rather than evidence that needs context.
- Ignoring pain, technique breakdown or medical restrictions to finish a planned session.
- Using technical language without showing how you communicate on the gym floor.
