January 19, 2016 19 – Consolidation & Interference Between Training Sessions
What processes occur during the times when an athlete is not on the field or court, that is there off-time between practices and competitions. How important are these rest periods for learning sports skills? Does it matter what an athlete does during these periods? Could doing something like playing video games possibly interfere with the gains made during practice?

Links to articles discussed:

Leg muscle recruitment during cycling is less developed in triathletes than cyclists despite matched cycling training loads

Practice With Sleep Makes Perfect: Sleep-Dependent Motor Skill Learning

The restorative effect of naps on perceptual deterioration

Experience-dependent changes in cerebral activation during human REM sleep

Watch and Learn: Seeing Is Better than Doing when Acquiring Consecutive Motor Tasks

Do action video games improve perception and cognition?

Action-Video-Game Experience Alters the Spatial Resolution of Vision

January 18, 2016 18E –Sports Science Shorts: Schema Theory, the Motor Program & Contributions of Richard Schmidt
Back in October of last year we lost one of the great thinkers and researchers in Motor Control and Motor Learning, UCLA Professor Richard Schmidt. Richard’s Schema Theory of Motor Learning and Generalized Motor Program have been both highly influential and highly contentious. What will their legacy be for future research?

Articles:

A schema theory of discrete motor skill learning.

Motor Schema Theory After 27 Years: Reflections and Implications for a New Theory

Current status of the motor program: Revisited

January 12, 2016 18C – Does Aerobic Exercise Improve Motor Learning, Designing Practice to Promote Transfer
News: Does going for a 30min run make it easier to learn a motor skill afterwards? Is there an optimal balance between stability and flexibility in practice?

Articles:

A Single Bout of Moderate Aerobic Exercise Improves Motor Skill Acquisition

Transfer as a function of exploration and stabilization in original practice

Towards a Grand Unified Theory of Sports Performance
