Motor Learning and Skill Acquisition, Unilateral vs. Bilateral Exercises, and More is not More ft. Henri Hanninen

New season of CircSci is dropping y'all! Sorry for the delay between 'sodes (I've been slammed with programs and more online coaching resource development! If you want to help support the time that goes into interviewing and editing these episodes, definitely consider contributing via Patreon.com/circkoz (where you'll also get video tutorials and more!). Anyway, Henri and I get up to some pretty deep discussions on how motor learning and skill acquisition occurs from a neuronal and proprioceptive perspective as well as practical examples of how you might program strength drills versus skill work. This one probably could do with a few listens to get the most out of it! "'Just because we had to suffer doesn’t mean everyone after us should suffer too. The future is supposed to be better than the past.' About Henri: Henri Hänninen (B.Sc) is a coach, an educator and a circus artist.

He is currently finishing up his M.Sc. studies in science of sports coaching and fitness testing, having completed minor studies in chemistry, molecular biology and cognitive neuroscience. His thesis is going to examine retention of a motor skill during a training break.

Henri has years of experience teaching parkour, aerial silks and floor acro, as well as performing as an aerialist. He's also a certified academic personal trainer.

At the moment he's working mostly as a strength and conditioning coach and an educator, bringing current evidence-based information to coaches, trainers and artists.

Having studied extensively and coached national level athletes and professionals in several completely different sports and disciplines (from figure skating to powerlifting, pole dance to hammer throw, parkour to aerial...), his specialty is analyzing the demands of a sport/discipline and designing training programs to meet those demands.

He's a strong advocate of sustainable practice and information-based decision-making, fighting against harmful traditions.
