Dr Carl Langan-Evans is the Programme Leader for the MSc in Strength & Conditioning and the former Head of Sport Science Support Services/Strength & Conditioning at Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU). As a former elite athlete in the sport of Taekwondo, Carl was originally involved with the School of Sport and Exercise Sciences via the LJMU Sport Scholarship programme from 2004 until 2008. During this time, Carl received a number of support services in the areas of strength & conditioning, physiology, psychology and sport nutrition to aid his competitive goals and this ultimately led to him becoming interested in working within the discipline. Continuing his affiliation with the School, Carl completed his PhD in applied sport physiology and nutrition with a mixed method approach undertaking five qualitative and quantitative, laboratory and field based investigations simultaneously examining and intervening in making weight strategies for combat sport athletes. Carl’s former post doctoral research was funded by the sport nutrition company Science in Sport (SiS) and was specifically focused on examining the formulation and modulation of ergogenic nutritional aids for elite sport performance. Additionally, Carl is an accredited strength & conditioning coach with the UKSCA, a practitioner recognised by the Sport & Exercise Nutrition Register (SENr), qualified sports therapist and completed a master of research (MRes) in sport physiology also at LJMU. Previously, Carl also worked as a strength & conditioning coach for the English Institute of Sport (EIS). Carl supports the School in teaching on a number of undergraduate and postgraduate modules, inclusive of those in strength & conditioning, sports nutrition and applied physiology. Alongside his university role, Carl consults with a number of professional and Olympic combat sports athletes inclusive of those in the UFC, Bellator, Cage Warriors mixed martial arts promotions, boxing and taekwondo.
