I’ve always like the quote, “great humans make great athletes”. While it’s not always true and fails to work in practicality, it grounds me and reminds me we are privileged to work with and for other humans. When we lose sight of that, tragedy strikes.

Just finished listening to this. Fantastically produced and a worthwhile listen for athletics professionals.

Takeaways:
-Winning ≠ success. Which do you want?
-WHOLEistic care. Athletes are people. When systems commoditize them, abuse is rampant. https://t.co/LE6pq77AbY

Grateful and humbled to share as we collectively push our craft forward!

[Shawn Myszka @MovementMiyagi]

Happy to spend some time listening to @TaylorGish0 present over at St. Thomas and an event @StuartBorne selflessly put together for those in the performance community in our collective area! Kudos gents!

HS Throws Coach: Jill Eppenbaugh
College Throws Coach: Jessica (Stephan) Hare

Two women who saw potential in me that others did not and were willing to instruct and develop me in and out of the throwing ring. I am a product of strong women.

[Reese Witherspoon @ReeseW]

Just curious ...Do you have a female sports coach who has changed your life ? Or someone else’s?

[Erwan Le Corre @ErwanLeCorre]

The fitness industry has been making all physical training environments flat, linear, stable, and predictable for decades. Simply put, your typical training environment is STERILE.

The next big thing? The return to adaptable movement through diverse, comple environments.

@collinkilburg Collin I believe we’re on the same page. Darn character limit to fully express ideas!

My concern centers around the certainty at which many of us operate in performance. We “know” ______ improves performance. I’m trying to highlight that transfer of training is much more complex

[Taylor Gish @TaylorGish0]

We're all seeking transfer of training. What am I doing that will truly benefit my athletes on the court/field/etc? Do "my" movements directly empower their performance?

This graphic is from a presentation I'll be giving at the UST Performance Clinic this Saturday January 25th.

[Taylor Gish @TaylorGish0]

Great line up of other presenters put together by @StuartBorne. I'm very much looking forward to growing and sharing together. Stu tells me students can sign up for FREE with the code STUDENT.

Women’s Hoops Final: Eagles win third straight, downing Bethany Lutheran on the road, 59-52. The Vikings were picked to win the UMAC by league coaches. Brooklyn DeKam finished with 22 points. @unwwbb https://t.co/ten6jJLgnL

@StuartBorne @MovementMiyagi @TylerYearby The part about prediction error (the dopamine hit we get when our expectations or assumptions are reenforced) alarms me from a psychosocial perspective.

Example.. I make a haste judgement about you and your program and when you lose a game I get a good feeling.

[Taylor Gish @TaylorGish0]

@StuartBorne @MovementMiyagi @TylerYearby Makes me think of path dependence.

More worthwhile forms of entertainment are out there and constantly emerging (different genres, new mediums, novel concepts). That said, it appears we are limited, bent, or bound to chose something familiar 🤦‍♂️

[Michael Zweifel @CoachMZweifel]

“Problem-Solver”
“Representative Learning”
“Adaptable”
“Movement Training”
“Dexterity”
An ESPN article can use this language but god forbid you use this language in S&C...
Happy for one of the best @MovementMiyagi

@StuartBorne BTW, the title of my talk comes from a 2017 @simplysportssci paper on Periodization Theory.

“We make our best decisions not when we confidently revert to automated rule-based assumptions, but when we are uncomfortably aware of the novelty inherent in every complex situation”

[Taylor Gish @TaylorGish0]

I'm excited for the opportunity to share and grow at the UST Performance Clinic on January 25th. The talk I'll be giving is called "Uncomfortably Aware". @StuartBorne has put together a diverse line up - check it out and hope to see you there!
