I've seen Ireland's newest Gold Medal Olympians in training on a regular basis over the last 5 years. Here's what I've learned from 2 athletes performing at the highest level 🥇 🧵

The IOC Executive Board has decided to propose Brisbane 2032 to the IOC Session as host for the Games of the XXXV Olympiad. The decision followed a recommendation by the Future Host Commission. The IOC Members will vote at the 138th Session in Tokyo on 21 July. #IOCEB

I think I need a little help to get a wider perspective. Thanks lads for your contribution but if you're a non male former elite/professional athlete & can spare 15mins to do a survey around transition from sport please follow the link: ljmu.onlinesurveys.ac.uk/ath… #sport #athlete

Denying the Science of Climate Change is like denying the accuracy and validity of the 7x Multiplication Tables, while accepting the 6x and 8x Multiplication Tables.

Ditch the Aussie flag until you serve Australians as you should. 8.5 Billion Dollars in profit last year, could afford to spend a bit on back up systems perhaps? @CommBank

Tucker presents some interesting counter arguments/research to some ‘common-sense’ beliefs in the development of sporting champions. Very useful insight into this space. I like the reuse of ‘race to the bottom’ to describe increasingly early specialisation
"How To Make a Champion". In a pod for coaches, parents & athletes, we tackle the hype of 10k hours, early specialisation, grit, and nature vs nurture, and introduce the fascinating science & business of talent. On all platforms: podcasts.apple.com/za/podcas… play.acast.com/s/realscience…

The longer I coach the more I question everything. There are so many conversations I would’ve loved to have had with prior versions of myself. The greatest evolutionary jump a coach makes is when they realize nothing is black & white & that you can’t take yourself so seriously.

DELIVERY OPTIONS: Parcelforce - we delivered your parcel, somewhere. Amazon - it's in your neighbour. DPD - No one answered after 5 seconds so you'll have to collect it from a shed in Wales. MY HERMES - We threw it in a quarry and burnt it.

Firmly not in the 12%, right here, I’d be decimated. 🙅‍♂️
One in eight men (12%) say they could win a point in a game of tennis against 23 time grand slam winner Serena Williams yougov.co.uk/opi/surveys/res…

Actually I’ll revise, if she double faulted, I could get a point.

This thread demonstrates the false equivalence given to media ‘experts’ over actual experts in their fields. This is why Joe Public can conclude that climate denial and anti-vax is a 50:50 guess, that’s what their incorrectly presented. 😔 science literacy matters
A thread Earlier this week, I was asked to guest on a well-known BBC Radio discussion programme. I said yes, sure, do that all the time. The next morning, day of the show, I pulled out. Here's my reasoning. /1
