Reconceptualizing Talent Development & Challenging Coaching Traditions and w/ Stuart Armstrong

The Adaptable Athlete Podcast

ANECDOTE

Early Constraints-Led Practice

  • Stuart Armstrong describes how he unknowingly used a constraints-led approach in his childhood cricket practice.
  • To keep his younger brother engaged in bowling to him, he'd make it more challenging by adding pound coins on the wickets, reducing the distance.
  • He used constraints by shrinking the bat size (equipment), using his brother (people), and adjusting the targets (environment).
  • This fostered his own skill development despite not having formal knowledge of constraints or skill acquisition.
