April 26, 2022 400 – JC #37: Skill Acquisition Theory & Coaching
To celebrate the 400th episode of the podcast, I was joined by a few friends to discuss something I am very passionate about: the role of skill acquisition theory in coaching. Is it just "psychobabble that confuses coaches"? Is it effective (or even possible) to pick and choose and theory for different situations?

February 22, 2022 391 – Are "Advance Cues" Used for Predictive or Prospective Control?
