I have the pleasure of having Iain Highfield on this week’s episode. Iain is a performance coach specialising in helping golfers develop their mental skills. He has implemented psychological conditioning programmes at two leading Junior Golf Academies and he was voted one of the best young golf teachers by Golf Digest Magazine in 2017. He is co-founder of Game Like Training Golf, where he introduces cutting-edge research to coaches.
In this episode we discuss the importance of taking a holistic approach to developing performance; building a collaborative model of progression; the importance of spaced and variable practice; tools to promote deeper learning; using gamification within practice; building a generalised motor pattern; and creating a chaotic set of activities.
