For todays show I’m joined by Tyler Yearby (@TylerYearby) and Shawn Myszka (@MovementMiyagi)

Tyler is the co-director education at Emergence and has appeared on the show before way back in episode 1.

Tyler has been been a strength coach and football position coach in multiple stops at the collegiate level.   He now  works as a movement skill acquisition coach for athletes from various levels and is currently pursuing is doctor at eh university of Gloucestershire in the UK.

Shawn has been served as a personal performance advisor & movement skill acquisition coach for NFL players since 2008 and up to this point has partnered w/ 5 NFL all pro and 12 pro bowl team members 

He is also the co director at education at Emergence as well.  and is pursing his doctorate along side Tyler 

They’ve  recently published  a paper titled “Applying an ecological approach to practice design in American Football” which seeks to shift the paradigm on how practice is designed and athletes are trained in American football 

This paper really is the first of its kind thats applied ecological dynamics to American football, so I was extremely excited to have them on.

Besides the paper, we discuss a myriad of concepts that are useful to both sport coaches and practitioners. 

I hope you enjoy the conversation!
