Interview with James Witts: Virtual Reality, Nanotechnology & the Future of Sports Science
For today's podcast episode I'm joined by writer James Witts.

Witts is the author of the new book Training Secrets of the World's Greatest Footballers: How Science is Transforming the Modern Game which you can buy on Amazon or wherever you get your books.
In this episode we'll discuss: how sports science has evolved in the UK, how nanotechnology may be the future of football, do players play too much and more.
If you like sports science or performance I recommend you check out the Training Ground Guru podcast which I host and produce with Simon Austin as we also touch on those subjects.
You can also reach out to James, his Twitter handle is @james_witts.
