How and why?

Hi John My point is that athletes in many sports produce enhanced performances over time and it is often the result of better technique, better coaching and better preparation, physical and mental........I use movement principles to deliver the novice's objectives. For a recreational angler, can yo...

We can respectfully agree to disagree on that view. We could I suppose but if these statements are true then we don't disagree at all. I would suggest all the high jumping coaches in Paris later this year would not teach the Fosby flop to cross a fence, but they all teach it to jumping athletes who...

Hi John Overgrown streams are not the only exception. Most rivers have trees and boulders, skiffs have a guy on a platform poling behind them. Many people fish up to their waist in water. There are a huge amount of constraints that drive varying solutions, otherwise we would only have to teach one ...

Why should the evolution of what we teach differ from the evolution of how we teach it? I contend it is the same pathway for both and that shared evolution should have the same benchmarks. Technology now allows for data to be collected in a laboratory or in the field. How that information should be...

And a bit more on baseball. Taking real data based on constraints and looking at the bigger picture rather than absolute performance throws up some interesting findings: Does the kinetic chain link in the expected proximal to distal order? Does it link in the same way with each execution of a movem...

Hi John so I repeat, it has been done before Yes, by starting with a question, forming a hypotheses and conducting a test then analysing the captured data. So what is “the” question that you want answered? in 2023 3,367 pitches hit 100 mph or faster. Something has changed in technique and many coac...

Hi John In my view, having specific casting movement data is the starting point. From that, analysis can be performed about what movement patterns and sequences best satisfy any number of casting objectives. The test objective or hypothesis is the starting point for both the scientific method and S...

Hi John As I mentioned in my post yesterday, laboratory data needs to be synthesised for lessons. However, the data needs to be gathered for an objective and I highlighted existing issues with that from the meta analysis. As Mark mentioned in post 92 and is evidenced in Paul’s post 114, I believe w...
