16 – Implicit Learning & Learning By Analogy

How can we learn to shoot a basketball by thinking about a cookie
jar and learn to putt a golf ball by thinking about
toothpaste?!!  Can a novice athlete really become great
without being given any verbal instructions about how to actually
perform their skill? In the episode, I explore some approaches to
learning and coaching sports skills that are radically different
to the traditional methods most of us have experienced.
