Episode #24 - The Best: How Elite Athletes Are Made | with Dr. Mark Williams

I am joined by Dr. Mark Williams - a professor at the University of Utah and author of the book "The Best: How Elite Athletes Are Made". In his book, Dr. Williams outlines a variety of factors that shape elite athletes and influence their development. Some of those influences we discussed on the podcast are: the environment in which athletes are born and develop, unorganized sports and their impact on skill development, early specializations and its advantages/disadvantages, and much more! You can find Dr. Williams' book here: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/1529304350?pf_rd_r=DCX639A125BW831CY9JB&pf_rd_p=05326fd5-c43e-4948-99b1-a65b129fdd73&pd_rd_r=240e6b85-a425-4436-85dc-9b41859b042c&pd_rd_w=KTqtD&pd_rd_wg=VWZHo&ref_=pd_gw_unk

All that and more with Matt Comand, a high performance coach and a former sport psychology professor.
