About Us​

Adrian Brough is a practicing S&C coach with over 20 years experience and an impressive track record
Adrian Brough is a strength & conditioning expert with over 25 years experience in physical preparation, injury management and athletic performance. His proven success in keeping injuries to a minimum and athletic performance to a maximum has set the foundation for factor athletic preparation software.

Through decades of experience, Adrian has gained extensive knowledge in all aspects of elite athletic performance including training and recovery loads, injury prevention and rehabilitation,  training for elite performance, musculo-skeletal imbalances and much more. Adrian has worked with World Champions, Olympians, National Champions and many other elite athletes. When working with these athletes Adrian would custom develop programs for maximizing performance and preventing injury, as he believes that you cannot improve at your sport or perform at your maximum level while injured.  This has lead to Adrian working with over 100 international level athletes across many different sports including football, rugby league, sailing, swimming, tennis, equestrian, track and field, and includes people and athletes with disabilities.  These years of experience and his hands-on approach to developing training programs provided Adrian with the expertise to design and create a software program to manage all areas of athletic preparation.

Adrian Brough holds Australia’s highest qualification in Strength and Conditioning (Level 3) along with a Graduate Diploma in Sports Nutrition and more then 15 years massage experience.  Adrian started with physical preparation in 1994 and successfully owned and operated his own fitness business for over 13 years and created a 1200 square metre rehabilitation medical centre. He launched factor in 2015.

Picture
Shane Nicholls is an impressive young Strength and Conditioning Coach who was hand-picked by Adrian Brough for the Factor Team after the two worked together at the Bradford Bulls. Shane has a history as an elite athlete across multiple sports and the desire for performance and to be the best in what he does certainly has not disappeared. 
Graduating with Honours from his Sport and Exercise Science degree, he has already compiled an impressive array of results.

Shane has excelled at working with a wide range of populations and client goals in his years of experience thus far. However, he always felt that his calling was to be working with elite athletes. This has seen him work with elite athletes among many codes and included time as Strength and Conditioning coach and Rehabilitation at English Professional Rugby League teams, Wakefield Trinity and Bradford Bulls. Wakefield Trinity felt the benefits of Shane's holistic approach to performance as he was drafted in by Head Coach Brian Smith to change the culture of performance around the club which was done very successfully. Shane's time at Bradford Bulls also saw some impressive results. He was part of the incredible injury crisis turn-around with Adrian Brough and was an integral part in the club being a far more intimidating force physically.
At the same time, the Under 19's of the club were struggling towards the bottom of the table with hope of a successful season all but gone. Shane then also took on the role of Head of Strength and Conditioning for this group of talented players and completely turned them around mentally and physically. This was the catalyst for an amazing late season charge which saw them miss the top 4 only by 1 point.

Shane is also part of an elite group of coaches taking part in Keegan Smith's Real Movement Project. An initiative to revolutionise the way movement is viewed and aiming to open up a world of new physical performance potential. He loves to challenge himself both physically and mentally, which sees him still training every day and also keeping on top of the latest research findings.

Shane has been an important member of the Factorprep team since beginning and has proven himself by producing many impressive physical results as well as returning athletes from the most complex of injuries and rehabilitation programs.
