Workout:
Throwing: 300 throws - Low, High both sides, Scoobers, Quick Releases
No workout - Rest Day
Reading:
On the three phases of Motor Learning (Cognitive, Associative, Autonomous):
"Interestingly, at this final phase, more effort or repetition does not necessarily improve skill. Without targeted coaching or skill development, people get as good as they need to be, and no more. Once a person learns to type emails reliably, they are not likely to get any faster or more accurate. In the same vein, once someone learns to parallel park well enough to pass their driver’s license test, they are probably not going to become an elite stunt driver even if they drive for several more decades."
- SIT in S&C, Craig Weller
This is a neat article. Take a look at the article for more details. The obvious point here is that if someone does not actively make a plan to get better ("targeted skill development"), they will stop improving once the Autonomous phase is reached, likely well below their potential. Just because you can throw a flick 30 yards most of the time, does this mean you have mastered the 30 yard flick?
