In the episode 14 we discuss the different constraints that we can use to create functional solutions in training that trigger performance outcomes. What are the demands of the sport, the degree of variability in canoe slalom that can potentially be used and structured to plan an effective learning process.
We discuss 3 categories of constraints: Individual constraints, Environmental (physical, cultural) constraints, Task constraints; and how we can use those different types of constraints to modify the training environment to learn meaningful outcomes that match the "real stuff" of racing.
My belief is that each individual has his own way of moving and therefore we should structure learning environment to help each paddler to develop their onw style as opposed to teach them one style. Based on this belief I am convinced that a successful training environment is a session in which, by modifying relevant parameters, the athlete is guided towards his own way of dealing with things. I love to think that constraint is a path to freedom

In the Episode 13 of the Canoe Slalom Podcast , I explore the basics of kayaking and canoeing. It is an episode that will suits the beginners and intermediate needs as well as development coaches. Of course, the best paddlers have done the work already and it is my belief that they are still working on those simple things as they train or warm up.
All the things you can do on the flatwer, the white water wihtout gates. Stroke, transmission, Steering, balance, propulsion are many things that can be trained and practiced without gates to enhance your skills. Being aware of them can help to break them down into manageable goals and ultimately improve each of them.
The basics are the building block of good technique so don't overlook them.
