Does coaching need to change between female and male athletes? If so, in what aspects? Do females and males communicate differently? Dr. David Nolan addresses these questions in detail, including challenging topics such as the menstrual cycle and pregnancy.
Dr. Nolan is a strength and conditioning coach and an assistant professor of sport and exercise science at the School of Health and Human Performance at Dublin City University. His research focuses on exercise physiology, with a particular interest in sex differences and the female athlete.
