EPISODE 51
if you’re not outstanding, you’re outprocessing.
learning and teaching in elite teams
Back in the day when we went to junior high or high school there was plenty of structure to learning but we were also easily distracted. It’s a little different when you fast forward into a profession or hobby built around saving your own life, so Mike and Jim discuss some thoughts for students and instructors on how to learn or teach well, whether it’s related to physical skills or the softer more academic stuff. Kind of administrative but relevant to learning how to fight, shoot, and perform.
