In this episode of the Science for Sport Podcast, Richard Graves is joined by Dr Ben Rosenblatt, Founder of 292 Performance and former Lead Men’s Physical Performance Coach at The Football Association.

Ben draws on his experience preparing the England men’s football team for two World Cups and a European Championship, alongside his work with Olympic athletes, GB Hockey and elite performers across a range of sports.

The conversation explores what it really takes to prepare athletes for tournament football at the highest level. Ben discusses why physical preparation cannot begin when players arrive in camp, how small doses of training can create meaningful change during a tournament, and why “available” is very different from “ready to compete” when returning players from injury.

He also explains the physical and psychological challenges of competing in extreme environments, from heat and altitude to fatigue and pressure, and shares how the best performance teams use data, observation, communication and athlete understanding together to make better decisions.

For practitioners working in elite sport, this episode offers a detailed insight into preparing players not simply to take part in major tournaments, but to perform when the demands are at their highest.

In this episode you will learn

  • Why effective tournament preparation starts months before the first game.
  • How England used micro-dosed strength training during the 2018 World Cup to improve players’ power and hamstring strength.
  • Why athletes must continually adapt and “reinvent” themselves to sustain performance at the highest level.
  • How Ben used daily monitoring with GB Hockey to prepare players for the demands of eight matches in 13 days at the Rio Olympics.
  • Why data should be considered alongside observation, athlete feedback, staff conversations and practitioner judgement.
  • The difference between returning a player to availability and preparing them to compete in the decisive stages of a major tournament.
  • How performance teams can prepare players for heat, humidity, altitude and travel during the 2026 World Cup.
  • Why recovery, nutrition, strength training and sprint exposure must be individualised rather than delivered as a single team-wide solution.
  • How clarity, trust and pressure training help athletes execute when the stakes are highest.
  • What the best high-performance environments look and feel like behind the scenes.

Heather has been part of the UNLV athletics staff since 2016, first joining as Assistant Director of Strength and Conditioning before moving into sport science and later being promoted to Assistant Athletics Director for Sports Science in 2024.

In this episode, Heather shares how UNLV has built a sport science model from the ground up, why data should inform rather than dictate decisions, and how practitioners can create real buy-in across coaches, athletes, strength and conditioning, sports medicine, nutrition and psychology.

The conversation explores the realities of working in collegiate sport, from the impact of the transfer portal to the challenge of supporting athletes when timeframes are shorter and rosters are constantly changing. Heather also discusses the importance of female athlete data, the risks of over-relying on wearable technology, and why return-to-play decisions must go beyond timelines and basic fitness markers.

Throughout the episode, Heather brings the conversation back to one core principle: sport science is still about people. Data matters, technology matters, and AI may help practitioners work more efficiently, but the human side of performance remains central to everything.

In this episode you will learn

  • How Heather transitioned from collegiate soccer player to strength and conditioning coach, and then into sport science
  • Why UNLV built its sport science model around being “human first”
  • How to use data as an input rather than treating it as the final answer
  • Why coach buy-in is easier when practitioners build trust and show value over time
  • The challenges of applying male-dominated performance data to female athletes
  • How the transfer portal has changed long-term athlete development in collegiate sport
  • Why wearable technology can support performance but also create “analysis paralysis”
  • How UNLV approaches return to play using performance outputs, not just timelines
  • Why AI can support information gathering and efficiency, but cannot replace human judgement
  • The importance of speaking the language of other disciplines in a high-performance team
