That Triathlon Show The evolution of coaching principles and practices with David Tilbury-Davis | EP#283
Coach David Tilbury-Davis returns to the podcast for a different kind of episode. David and Mikael muse over how coaching and training principles and practices are evolving, and how training and learning frameworks already used successfully in many sports and contexts outside of triathlon can be applied in a triathlon or endurance sports setting.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT:
-Autonomy
-Diversity
-Psychology
-Specificity
-The integration of physiology, psychology, and environmental constraints
-Training athletes as "complex systems" vs. training "independent components of a system"
