Motor learning and skill development are key to improving an athlete's ability to perform at the highest level. Whether you are hitting a golf ball, swinging a baseball bat, or throwing a 30 yard touchdown pass, all movements must be learned by the individual. (THIS IS NOT "MUSCLE MEMORY", THERE IS NO SUCH THING). If you want to know the specific stages of motor learning and ways to optimize your verbal, tactile, and kinesthetic cues, then this episode is PRECISELY for you!Drew said it perfectly, "It doesn't matter how good your exercises are if you can't coach them". What he means is that no matter how dope your program is, if your athletes and clients don't have the ability to execute the exercises then all that work going into your program was unfortunately wasted. Coaches need to understand that the biggest part of their roles in the weight room is giving the athlete ACCESS to these movements. This is done through the neuromuscular system. We can optimize our athlete's ability to develop skill by being strategic with cueing and programming. All of this and more you can find in this episode. Enjoy!
