It was great coordinating two different biomechanics data collections with #TeamFelix yesterday. Practical on court movement and lab based 3D mocap on serving.
Special thanks to the team at LTU with a smooth in/out time!

Deliberate Practice ≠ Repetitive Practice
A misconception about deliberate practice is that it has to be repetitive
A hallmark of DP is engagement. If they’re doing constant repetitions, they're not engaged
Variety helps athletes stay in engaged

When I started DDSA, I didn't get a lot of support in my own country, cash flow was tough, few teams wanted to sign up for a longer term.
#TeamSabalenka and #TeamJabeur are the the two teams that committed to me that helped me have the confidence to grow DDSA. – at Melbourne, Victoria

Just saw the speaker schedule for a popular S&C conference in the new year & couldn't help but SMH at the fact that they have 3 full days of presenters & not a single person discussing skill acquisition ideas.
Sport preparation is more than teaching OLY lifts & squatting.
