How "Real" Does Training Need to Be? w/ Dr. Alex Lascu

Send us Fan Mail

Dr Alex Lascu is a skill acquisition amateur (lover of) and research assistant at the University of Canberra. She exists in the gap between research and practice in sport coaching, in the hopes of one day bringing these worlds together. 

Alex also has a background as a cricket coach, which we get into during the episode.

I had heard of Alex before but really first came across her work after after reading her article “What Needs to Be Real?” 

Which dives into representative learning design and how it can serve as framework for coaches to design their practice.
