Learning Expert: The Secret to Perfect Practice in Sports

Описание: Today, I had the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Will Wu. He specializes in motor control and motor learning, the stealth sciences that underly the effectiveness of our approach to practice. In this episode, we learn about how some of the underlying mechanisms of our motor learning work, what most athletes are missing in their approach to skill development, and the types of practice that give you the most bang for your buck. We dive into how this impacts sports performance.
