    Alex Sarama (@transformingbasketball) talks ecological dynamics, practice design, rate limiters and much more!

    Alex is a phenomenal coach and a pioneer in this space, he's an advocate for progressing and evolving the current state of development and basketball coaching as well as the overall approach to things like: performance training, front office work, athletic training, etc The traditional/dominant approach is outdated, and as Alex mentions in the episode - you wouldn't expect your doctor to be using methods/medicine from 2000 or early because that would be malpractice, why do we continue to accept this as the status quo and not demand for this field to be as updated and progressive as possible. The most recent and relevant research/information should be applied to coaching as much as possible Alex and I talk about a bunch of great stuff in this episode and he's always a treat to talk to and have the pleasure of having on the podcast, please make sure to check out all his stuff linked below: Website - https://transformingbball.com/subscribe/ Podcast - https://education.transformingbball.com/podcasts/the-transforming-basketball-podcast IG - https://www.instagram.com/transformingbasketball/

    Jack Pyzynski (@jackpyzynski) pt 1. brings us through struggles in covid to winning a national championship, playing NCAA D2 and what really matters in life outside of basketball

    Jack is a great human & basketball player, he and I talk about his journey from being under recruited, having his freshman year taken away by covid, winning a national championship the next year and then back to back conference championships along with all the struggles and hardship in between  After SMCC Jack takes us through his experience at Franklin Pierce which a NCAA Division 2 school in NH in the NE10, he played there for one semester and shortly transferred to UNE (University of New England) to finish out the year and why that change was so important to him and why it was such a better fit  Jack provides some great insight for any players listening and anyone in general!

    What Is Skill & Constraints Explained

    This week I touch on what exactly skill is, and how it differs from things like technique, as well as what exactly constraints are and how we can use/apply them There's an important distinction that I think needs to be more known and that's the difference between a games-approach and the constraints-led approach, while you'll see a lot of crossover between the two they are very different. There are plenty of coaches that create small-sided games and apply one constraint and then leave that and let them play for awhile, and that's where I believe the misunderstanding comes from - some people think that I throw the ball out and just let my players play 3v3 freely... that's not the case.  I work hard to engineer practice sessions to development skillful basketball players, and that happens through creating unique and creative small-sided games with specific constraints applied in order to elicit the skills needed to be improved upon.  Let me know what you guys think!!

    Trevor Ragan (@learnerlab) talks zoo tiger vs jungle tiger, the importance of representation, growth mindset and feedback

    Trevor does an amazing job breaking down, what can be pretty dense, science about learning. In the weeds, talking to the researchers about their work and applying it constantly to his own work and then creating content and making it super consumable for anyone listening  Trevor and talk about a metaphor he coined "zoo tiger vs jungle tiger", what that means to him and how it applies to life and even sport. We talk a little about representation and why it's so important and even why we lack in that area sometimes, we talk about the mindset needed to truly grow and then we talk about the importance of feedback when teaching and/or coaching!

    Drake Berberet (@strength2.speed) talks all things force plates, asymmetries, food spots in maine and much more!

    Drake is true professional and currently working with one of the best force plate companies in the world (Hawkin Dynamics). Drake and I talk about force plates, interpreting data, applying the information you get from the technology, using that data to address things like asymmetries, things like how to recognize if an athlete is "cheating" a test and much more I think the force plate talk is great, but you can also learn a lot from Drakes journey. Hearing about the amount of internships he did, the people he connected with, the positions that didn't work out and everything else in between speak to the industry and also why he's so effective at the position he currently holds with Hawkin Make sure to check out Drake on social media and check out the force plates too! https://www.instagram.com/strength2.speed/ https://www.instagram.com/hawkindynamics/ https://www.hawkindynamics.com/
