Matt Nichol is one of the most recognisable faces when it comes to strength & conditioning in ice hockey and he was introduced to me by previous podcast guest, Martin Buchheit. When Martin speaks highly of someone, you know its going to be an excellent episode and Matt definitely didn't let us down. Matt has been working in and around the NHL for the last 15 years and is not only a highly respected strength coach but the owner of a second business called BioSteel, a supplement company. Clearly Matt is more than just a strength coach and in this episode we get under the skin of the coach, businessman and person.
