  <description>In episode sixteen Lachlan Wilmot, Co-Director of Athletes Authority, joins us.
Specifically Lachlan will be looking at:
How much individualisation is important
What are limiting factors for individualisation
Individualisation in team vs private settings
About Lachlan:
"I am currently director of a facility here in Sydney Australia called Athletes Authority which is a private facility for athletes only, whether that’s  development, amateur or pro athletes. My background was initially as a personal trainer back in the day, so came out of the Fitness First ranks. Worked for the GWS Giants for 8 years as the Strength &amp;amp; Power coach, and then moved over to the dark side to the NRL with the Paramatta Eels where I was head of performance there for a couple of years, before I moved into the private sector, with the current facility expanding at a rate we didn’t plan on, but it’s been very good. So I jumped on board with our co-owner Carl, and here we are!"
