In today’s episode I am joined by my favourite researcher Terri Weeks. She brings with her a simple evidence-based way to make sure your practices are deliberate, effective, and transfer into your game play.
Listen to learn how best to identify your performance gaps, plan your practices, and make your new skills automatic.
- Step 1: Identify your performance gaps & identify your priorities
- Step 2: Make a plan
- Step 3: Complete deliberate & blocked practices
- Teach, Assess, Retest
- Step 4: Complete deliberate & random practice = prepares for game situation
- Throughout: Take notes, on notes, on notes, and practice, practice & practice.
