LEARN how you UNDERSTAND movement, KEEP going and it will be EFFECTIVE. How do we develop new movement patterns? Do we copy what others do, listen for intricate instructions, just try it out, or do we dive into the mechanics? The big four learning styles in the gym are visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and conceptual. Do you know which one you rely on the most? If you’re a coach, do you assume everyone learns the way you do? The best cues are the simplest. For the highest impact, the simplicity lies in matching how that person learns. I will be forever grateful to Luke for making me a better coach. He taught me a lifelong lesson in the gym that extends far beyond the ticcing community. We can take this lesson to learning new lifts, learning how to swim, or in how we guide others through the process. Tics or no tics, we all need to have movement literacy for longevity and quality of life. To build that movement literacy, just remember LUKE: Learn how you Understand movement, Keep going, and it will be Effective.
