Ep 129 - Why Your Fastest Athlete Isn't Always Your Best Problem Solver
Is speed a capacity, or a skill? Most coaching treats them as the same thing, and that's where the gap starts.
Speed as a capacity, not an outcome: why a stopwatch measures something real, but not the thing that actually shows up in a game
Speed through the constraints triangle: task, environment, and individual, why the same physical capacity looks completely different depending on the sport, the surface, and the athlete standing in front of you
Speed as problem-solving: why raw speed without perception is an incomplete tool, and why some of the fastest testers never make it in their sport
A short, direct episode on a topic almost every coach thinks they already understand.
Join us this November in Chandler, Arizona for the Skill Acquisition Retreat, and stay the next day for CSAS testing, the Certified Skill Acquisition Specialist certification.
