Drawing on over 20 years of experience across elite sport and education, Ryan explains why durability, not peak output, is the real target in disciplines defined by unpredictability, variable terrain, and repeated decision-making under fatigue. He walks through his Restore, Apply, Own framework, the role of technology in bridging the gap between training and competition, and why the explosive growth of the X Games League and Olympic action sports makes this one of the most exciting frontiers in performance science right now. 30:08 no What does it actually take to prepare an athlete for a sport where the environment itself is part of the challenge? In this week's episode, Richard Graves sits down with Ryan Blake, Performance Coach, Consultant, and founder of Extreme Sports Performance, to explore the fascinating and often overlooked world of action sports performance. Ryan brings a unique perspective to this conversation. A former action sports athlete himself whose career was cut short by a life-threatening injury, he has since spent over 20 years working across elite sport, academy systems, private education, and national governing bodies, before circling back to the world he started in. Today, he works as a performance consultant for British Water Ski and Wakeboard, Head of Sport Science at St Paul's School in London, and Lead Tutor for the Youth Strength and Conditioning Association. This isn't a conversation about conventional periodisation or standard gym metrics. Ryan challenges the assumptions baked into most traditional performance models and makes a compelling case for why action sports, think X Games, halfpipe snowboarding, freestyle skiing, demand an entirely different approach. One built not around chasing peaks, but around building repeatable, durable performance that holds up under fatigue, variable terrain, and real-world unpredictability. He talks through his Restore, Apply, Own framework in practical terms, explains why training in a fresh state but competing in a fatigued one is one of the most underappreciated problems in sport, and shares how he uses a blend of velocity-based training, jump testing, readiness monitoring, and athlete-specific education tools to close that gap. He also weighs in on the growing use of AI in competition judging, the rapid rise of the X Games League, and why the preparation systems in action sports simply haven't caught up with where the sport is heading. Whether you're a sports scientist, strength and conditioning coach, or simply someone with an interest in how elite performance is built at the fringes of mainstream sport, this is a conversation worth your time. In This Episode You Will Learn * Why traditional performance models fall short in action and adventure sports, and what needs to change * The difference between performance capacity and durability — and why durability is the more important target in action sports * How Ryan's Restore, Apply, Own framework structures athlete preparation from the ground up * Why training athletes in a fatigued state is just as important as having them fresh — and how to do it effectively * How to use a simple SWOT analysis to identify athlete needs and prioritise support when resources are limited * The role of technology in action sports performance, including VBT, jump testing, readiness monitoring, and AI in competition judging * Why strength training alone doesn't transfer to sport performance without progression through capacity, application, and environment * How the rapid growth of the X Games League and Olympic inclusion is creating both opportunity and a preparation gap in action sports * Practical first steps for coaches and athletes looking to engage with a more structured performance system in action sports About Ryan Blake Ryan Blake is a performance coach and consultant specialising in action and adventure sports. He founded Extreme Sports Performance in 2018 after a career that has taken him through elite academy systems, professional sport, private education, and national governing body consultancy. He holds accreditations from both the UKSCA and NSCA, holds an MSc in Maintenance and Enhancement of Elite Performance from the University of Portsmouth, and has worked with world champion athletes and Olympic medallists across disciplines including British Tennis, England Cricket, British Cycling, and now British Water Ski and Wakeboard. Alongside his consultancy work, Ryan serves as Head of Sport Science at St Paul's School in London and as Lead Tutor for the Youth Strength and Conditioning Association. His own background as an action sports athlete — and the life-threatening injury that ended that chapter — underpins his philosophy around risk, durability, and long-term performance.

Every Monday, Matt Solomon chats with various experts to uncover the science and secrets behind what makes the best athletes in the world so damn good at what they do. They’ll also dive into global issues and events effecting the world of sport, such as COVID-19 and gene doping. Though anyone is welcome to join us on this journey, this podcast is primarily for: • S&C coaches/sports scientists • Physiotherapists • Nutritionists/Dieticians • Physical education teachers • Sports enthusiasts • Knowledge-seeking athletes If you’re any of the above, we challenge you to listen to an episode and not fall in love with this laugh-out-loud, brain-swelling podcast. 27:24 no In episode 225 Michael McElhenie and Greg Dunn Founders of Exult Sport, join us. Specifically they will be looking at: Importance of youth sport Developing a positive culture Maximising the impact of youth sport About Michael & Greg Dr. Michael McElhenie is a leading figure in leadership development and organizational change and is renowned as one of the world’s top experts in Emotional Intelligence (EQ). His profound impact across decades spans coaching global executives, world leaders, and elite athletes worldwide. With a robust background in behavioral neuroscience, psychology, embodied practices, and kinesiology, Dr. McElhenie skillfully balances roles as an advisor to executive teams, corporate boards, and sports industry leaders while coaching athletes to enhance their EQ. His influential teaching on organizational evolution, responsive intelligence, and the critical practices for living an emotionally intelligent life have touched millions. A versatile sports enthusiast with a deep-rooted passion for hockey, Dr. McElhenie’s journey was notably shaped by a transformative experience at a Canadian hockey camp in the late '70s. There, he encountered a professional goalie coach who introduced him to pivotal breathwork and focusing techniques, essential for emotional management both on and off the ice. These techniques have become Dr. McElhenie’s cornerstone as he guides others to achieve their utmost potential. Gregory Dunn is a dynamic fusion of an accomplished athlete, seasoned business executive, and skilled executive leadership coach, dedicated to enhancing human performance through the art of self-mastery. His fervent commitment to personal development drives athletes, business leaders, and teams toward the pinnacle of success. Forged in the competitive fires of AAA, Junior, and Canadian Division 1 hockey in Toronto, Greg intimately understands the rigors of balancing physical prowess with emotional growth. He sharpened his emotional intelligence as an athlete, guided by exceptional coaches and his own exploratory practices. But Greg's journey of self-improvement extends beyond the rink. He broadened his horizons through corporate and entrepreneurship experiences, enriched by leadership training, a professional coaching certification, and a Master's Degree in Organizational Leadership. Greg's approach is a holistic blend of emotional, cognitive, spiritual, and interpersonal growth, creating tailored strategies for success. At the heart of his philosophy lies a simple yet powerful tenet: embracing challenges and cultivating resilience are the cornerstones of ongoing personal development and achieving peak performance.

(To his surprise, the latter was purchased not only by his sister but also by President Barack Obama and former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.) He is also the host of Slate’s popular “How To!” podcast. He was previously a science and investigative reporter at ProPublica, and prior to that a senior writer at Sports Illustrated, where he co-authored the story that revealed Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez had used steroids.

His story “Following the Trail of Broken Hearts,” on sudden cardiac death in athletes, was chosen as one of the top 100 stories of the last 100 years by Columbia Journalism alumni. David has given talks about performance science and the uses (and misuses) of data on five continents; his TED Talks (here and here) have been viewed more than 10 million times. Three of his stories have been optioned for films: a Sports Illustrated story on the only living Olympian to have survived a concentration camp; an Atlantic/ProPublica piece detailing the DEA’s fraught pursuit of Chapo Guzman’s rivals; and a 2016 “This American Life” episode he wrote and narrated about a woman with two rare diseases who shares a mutant gene with an Olympic medalist. David has master’s degrees in environmental science and journalism, and is reasonably sure he’s the only person to have co-authored a paper in the journal of Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research while a writer at Sports Illustrated. (Like many of the characters in Range, he has benefitted from a winding career.) He has worked as an ecology researcher in the Arctic, studied geology and astronomy while residing in the Sonoran Desert, and blithely signed up to work on the D-deck of a seismic research vessel shortly after it had been attacked by pirates. David enjoys volunteering with the Pat Tillman Foundation and Classroom Champions, and, as of recently, with the National COVID-19 Convalescent Plasma Project.
