Long sessions
I follow a mastercoach-progrM with the dutch olympic comittee. And some 20 other coaches from other sports
A great opportunity where everytime we gather we get these great insightful presentations
Yesterday we met and spoke with Professor Schollhorn or something the like (can look his name up) about differential learning.
He showed us brain scans after different types of training
After DIFFERENTIAL TRAINING the brains activity levels were much higher AND more in alfa-state than after repetitive practice.
What this means: when your brain is in alfa, you learn quicker/better/more
Alfa-waves = brain frequency (beta,gamma,theta)
Then i asked him the question of this topic and his explanation was that a fatigued brain is automatically more in alfa-state, therefore learning better
Look this up DIFFERENTIAL LEARNING
mNy players in practice want to do thing they already master, so they falter little and can feel good about themself after the training
(Usually the outcome never satisfies)
According to differential learning proclaimers the brain needs to be overloaded, surprised, tested and challenged by continuously varying not only the front-office (different games, different types of drills nd training)
But also the setup and mechanics
This stimulates the brain tofind its own perfect setup
