Storm Clark - Making Athletes Better Athletes

Jody Martins | October 30, 2023

Storm Clark is a Strength & Conditioning Coach working with the Northern Cape Heat, a cricket team that plays in the South African Division 2. In the past two seasons, they have won the CSA 4-day competition at their level and undoubtedly the work Storm does with these cricketers to last and perform over 4 days paid dividends.

In this conversation, we talk about…

  • Cricket being a power-sprint sport.
  • Separating the cricketer from the athlete.
  • The distances cricketers cover in a test match.
  • Working on the body and how that affects the mind.
  • Improving without feeling like physical training is the worst thing ever.
  • Finding S&C or fitness coaches that make it enjoyable and make you better.
  • Fitness testing as a tool to know what do.

As a former cricket coach, who now works as a Mental Performance Coach, and consults with Cricket South Africa as a National Coach Developer, I am fascinated with the Why, What and How of performance in sports.
