Four years ago, Derek Hansen and I hosted Dr. Don Chu at the 2009 BC Recovery and Regeneration Seminar.
If you missed it, I put up the entire 2 hour lecture (free of charge) on my other site at StrengthPowerSpeed.com
Needless to say, I am proud to announce we have Dr. Chu back in Vancouver.
May 18 & 19, 2013 to be exact. NOTE: This is a long weekend in Canada.
The conference is titled Meeting of the Minds where we’ll have in-depth discussion of advanced topics in Strength & Conditioning and High Performance Sport. (scroll below for the outline)
If you live in Western Canada or the Pacific North West (Washington & Oregon State), you should consider making the drive up.
The Format
Instead of having a traditional presentation for 60-90 minutes, we are going to change the format slightly, ideally with some presentations being a short 18 minute TED talk followed by 40 minutes of discussion.
I’ll be giving a talk as well, so be sure to check out SpeedEndurance TV.
