SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter

Rob Gray: Unlocking Athlete Potential Through Ecological Dynamics


Listen Later

This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, features Rob Gray, a skill acquisition specialist, professor at Arizona State, sport scientist with the Chicago Cubs, and, simply, the father of the modern coaching movement in sports. His books, podcast, and research have formed the foundation of thousands of coaches’ coaching philosophy, including Mewhirter’s. What a special episode! They chat about:

  • What is ecological dynamics, and what makes it so effective for learning
  • Why the old way of coaching (top-down, repetition-based) is giving way to the modern, ecological way espoused by Gray
  • External vs. internal cues, and why the former is vastly more effective than the latter
  • What the world has gotten wrong with the famous 10,000-hour rule
  • And so, so, so much more.
