Scientific Literacy and Serial Specialization with Anthony Donskov

In this episode of the Hockey Strength Podcast, David interviews Anthony Donskov.

Anthony is the owner of Donskov Strength and Conditioning (DSC) in Columbus, Ohio, the author of several books, a published researcher with a Ph.D, and now, the host of the The High Performance Hockey Podcast.

In this episode, David and Anthony use the question ‘what is science’ as the foundation for discussing the scientific method and why having a healthy dose of skepticism is important for any performance coach.

Later, they discuss Anthony’s new course, The High-Performance Hockey Masterclass. Anthony touches on his approach to finding and analyzing research papers, a key ability for any Strength and Conditioning coach that wants to stay up to date with the field.

Finally, they talk about what it means to be a “serial specialist.”
