This extrasode is an excerpt from episode 4 where we discussed motor learning. In this short clip we talk about the benefits of external cuing and also the benefits of constraint induced tasks on performance. 

This short clip was taken out of our larger chat with Tom Frost in episode 5 - Need for Speed. The guys discuss mental toughness and getting the best efforts out of your athletes. 

Thanks again to Tim Rowland for coming on the show and sharing his ACL expertise with us. In this episode we discuss return to running and return to play for the ACL injured athlete.

You can find Tim on Instagram here...  Tim is a founder of PhysioNetwork and has some great evidence based blogs relevant to this subject.
