When a coach identifies a maladaptive movement pattern in an athlete, what is the best way to change it? Do formal biomechanical evaluations help? How can we identify the origins of the problem? How can we improve agility and speed without disrupting perception-action coupling?

What is “transfer of training”? How should we be assessing it and what does research tell us is the best way to achieve it?

Is focusing one’s attention on skill execution as a result of increased self-consciousness really the primary cause “choking under pressure”?  Is the evidence in support of this theory flawed?
