Performance scientist Dr Peter Tierney joins Dr Sophie Bostock to explore what elite sport can teach us about sleep, recovery, and sustainable performance. Having worked across professional rugby, football and wearable technology innovation, Peter brings a rare perspective on how recovery habits translate from elite athletes to everyday life.
In this episode, Peter shares what separates the highest performers from the rest, how attitudes toward sleep have evolved in elite sport, and why recovery should be viewed as a system rather than a quick fix. Together, they unpack the role of wearable technology, the impact of late-night training and travel on sleep, and the practical habits that can help anyone improve recovery in an always-on world.
Blending science, coaching and real-world experience, Peter offers evidence-based insights and practical strategies for building healthier, more sustainable sleep and recovery habits, whether you’re training for a marathon, or simply trying to perform better in daily life.
