The Nature of Agility and Ecological Approaches
The conventional belief is that agility is an inherent skill that individuals possess uniformly. However, an ecological approach suggests that agility is not a fixed trait but something that individuals can demonstrate based on the environment they are in. By understanding this concept, coaches can be more purposeful in their training methods. This shift in perspective challenges the traditional view and emphasizes the importance of considering the environment and its affordances in developing agility, as training to move faster may not translate directly into improved agility without understanding the interaction with the environment.
