Competitive swimming places high endurance, strength and power demands on the young athlete. Training in the pool and gym requires neural and muscular recovery to adapt to training, and these adaptations to become faster occur during sleep and in the kitchen. Richard brings a dynamic and unique skillset to the sleep and performance nutrition swimming landscape with 15 years of experience working at the world elite level with respect to human performance. From All Black rugby to Olympic swimmer Joseph Schooling and including 6 years as head of sport and swimming nutrition at the Singapore Sport Institute, Richard has applied his nutrition and sleep science knowledge to optimise performance and
recovery for hundreds of athletes. Richard is excited to explore this optimisation journey alongside SwimCamps and offer young athletes the best advice and plans to help them grow, perform and achieve their sporting dreams.
