England’s fitness coach talks to Ali Martin about how he has guided cricketers remotely with personalised plans, online bike races and even cooking challenges
As England’s cricketers make their first tentative steps towards the nets after eight weeks at home, the fitness coach who has been chivvying them along remotely believes some may return in the best shape of their career.
When the Test tour to Sri Lanka was abandoned in March and the squad flew home to find Boris Johnson locking down the country, the director of England cricket, Ashley Giles, tasked his strength and conditioning lead, Rob Ahmun, with keeping the troops active and stated publicly there would be “no excuses” for a drop in standards.
