Performance Insider Newsletter — Research breakdowns for performance professionals
The Sports Science Newsletter · Issued Tuesdays & Thursdays

Sport science,
translated.

Performance Insider turns peer-reviewed research into programming decisions you can make Monday morning. Covering Sports Performance, Sports Science, and Return to Play — built for the professionals on the floor.

Three domains.
One evidence-first lens.

No hot takes. No Instagram infographics pretending to be science. Just rigorous breakdowns of the studies that should actually change the way you coach, rehab, and prepare athletes.

— 01

Sports Performance

Programming, periodization, power development, monitoring load, and the training methods moving the needle at the highest levels of sport.

S&C Force–Velocity Periodization
— 02

Sports Science

Biomechanics, physiology, and testing methodology — unpacked with enough depth to be useful, and enough plain English to be applied.

Force Plates GPS/Wearables Recovery
— 03

Return to Play

The bridge between rehab and performance. Criteria-based progressions, reinjury risk, and what the evidence says about getting athletes back safely — and fast.

ACL Reinjury Criteria-Based

The people who do the work.

You've got athletes to test, sessions to write, and returns to make decisions on — not hours for a literature review. Performance Insider is built for practitioners who want the signal, not the noise.

01 Strength & Conditioning Coaches
02 Athletic Trainers
03 Physical Therapists
04 Sport Scientists

Written by a coach, for coaches.

Ramsey is a sports performance practitioner and the voice behind Applied Performance — a platform built at the intersection of research and the weight room. His work focuses on translating the sport science literature into the kinds of decisions coaches, clinicians, and sport scientists make every day.

Performance Insider grew out of a simple frustration: the best research rarely reaches the practitioners who need it most, and when it does, it's usually drowned in jargon or stripped of nuance. This newsletter is the middle ground — rigorous enough to be trusted, clear enough to be used.
