Send us a text Welcome to a throw back to one of our most popular podcasts! For over 115 years, the All Blacks have set the standard in world rugby, becoming the most successful sports team in history. In this episode, Joint Dynamics’ Andrew Cox sits down with the man behind their physical edge: Dr. Nic Gill, long-time Strength & Conditioning coach to the New Zealand All Blacks. Nic has taken the All Blacks to four Rugby World Cups, been on the sidelines for more than 200 tests, and was integral to their back‑to‑back World Cup wins in 2011 and 2015. He opens the doors to his world of high performance, sharing what it really takes to build, sustain, and evolve greatness at the elite level. In this conversation, Gilly and Andrew dive into: Why having a home base in New Zealand ultimately didn’t work for the All Blacks. How dual international Brad Thorn helped shape the mindset of Sam Whitelock, the longest‑serving All Black at the time of recording with 153 caps (ahead of Richie McCaw’s 148). On‑ and off‑field stories of excellence with Jordie Barrett. The simple body‑composition strategy Nic gave Ma’a Nonu that helped him become virtually unstoppable. Conrad Smith hitting a bench‑press PB before a Rugby World Cup and being almost as stoked as winning the trophy itself. The common traits Nic has seen in great head coaches like Ian Foster, Sir Steve Hansen, and Sir Graham Henry. A powerful message for young athletes who dream of becoming an All Black—or reaching similar heights in their own sport.Enjoy Show sponsor is Muvitality Medicinal Mushrooms for modern day health and wellness | Mu …Go to muvitality.com and use the code JD10 to receive a 10% discount on your purchase of Mu Functional mushrooms such as Lions Mane, Cordyceps, Chaga, Reishi, and Turkey tail functional mushrooms Enjoy Here are some useful links for this podcast https://www.nicgill.com/about-nic-gill-strength-and-conditioning-coach/https://www.instagram.com/nicgill_health_and_performance/ Relevant episodes Episode 91 - Becoming a “Mindset monster” with Super Rugby Human Performance & Mindset coach Davie Gray https://podcasts.apple.com/hk/podcast/episode-91-becoming-a-mindset-monster-with-super/id1527374894?i=1000640880513Episode 99 - Simon Thomas on Super Rugby strength & conditioning https://podcasts.apple.com/hk/podcast/episode-99-simon-thomas-on-super-rugby-strength-conditioning/id1527374894?i=1000653893429JOINT DYNAMICS links: Joint Dynamics Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/JointDynamicsHongKong/Joint Dynamics Instagram -https://www.instagram.com/jointdynamics/Joint Dynamics Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRQZplKxZMSvtc6LxM5WckwJoint Dynamics Website - www.jointdynamics.com.hk  Host - Andrew Cox - https://www.jointdynamics.com.hk/the-team/trainers/andrew-cox
