Craig has been lecturing within Sport and Exercise Science for eight years, across a range of subject areas including Physiology, Biomechanics, Research Methods, and Strength and Conditioning.

Craig completed his undergraduate degree in Applied Sport Science at Southampton Solent University. During his studies he worked as Strength and Conditioning Coach for Solent Sharks Wheelchair Rugby Club and the Solent High Performance Academy. It was during this time he developed a fascination for the intricacies of strength and conditioning (S&C) and the science underpinning the decisions S&C coaches face day to day. Pursuing this, Craig completed a PhD to further our understanding of core strength and injury risk, examining the effects of lower back fatigue from football on sprinting technique and hamstring strength.

Craig is a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and continues to research within many areas of sport and exercise science, with a particular interest in resistance training.
