In this podcast, I chat with Emily about why she started her company Relentless and we debate and discuss various issues such as the gap between research and applied practice, her thoughts and perceptions about ACL injuries in a female athletic population, what she feels should constitute a module in strength and conditioning on females and where she thinks research might be lacking in this area.
