New paper out: 'The Impact of Functional Movement Variability and Movement Creativity on Sport Climbing Performance'.Here we found links between the sheer number of ways a test route could be climbed and performance on a separate new route:.

New paper out looking at how to integrate ecological dynamics for developing and assessing sport technology also in the context of commercialisation. A lot of the ideas around enskillment from @CarlWoods25 kickstarted this effort.

RT @AcpBrunel: Today's Sarcopenia Workshop was a success! Thanks to Dr. Donny Camera (Exercise Physiologist) and Dr. Stephen Keenan (Dietit….

Big cheers up to @Swinburne School of Health Sciences for funding our project to lead establishing multimodal concussion monitoring in youth contact sport @Swinburne. (looking forward to the wok ahead with Alexandra Gaillard, @PE_Coaching, @DonnyMCamera).

Exploring some @wattbike data from a learning intervention during HIIT-w/ @DonnyMCamera @NickolasWaldron Dr Ben Bullock .Here participants practice achieving a target average Watts across repeated bouts in the context of an HIIT intervention - nice data from these systems

Big cheers up to the Barbara Dicker Brain Science Foundation for supporting this work - here we look to apply expertise/skill acquisition models such as ecological dynamics and OPTIMAL to support sustainable behaviour change for individuals with depression

Well done @kev_tissera on 'The impact of augmented feedback (and technology) on learning and teaching cricket skill: A systematic review with meta-analysis' here applying the ecological dynamics framework to reconceptualise fb in cricket

'Unilateral Force Production Deficits Following Hand Injury In Experienced Climbers: A Reliability And Retrospective Injury Study'.been a while on tech detox - but a new paper out looking at unilateral strength in previously injured climbers- 50 day link

RT @actpredictlab: Application deadline in two days!.

and big cheers up to craftmanship of @SiroOtten, Danny Koops, Hans Agricola in particular.

Assessing finger-tip strength across multiple climbing grips. Co-designed across sport-sci, athletes, engineers @VU_FGB on the premise that strength across multiple sport-specific actions supports functional movement variability and subsequent performance

Powerful stuff!

Im late to the party but a wonderful set of ideas and call to action to address negative aspects of technology use using motor learning/ontological principles:

A priori vs ad hoc education, interesting use of ecological dynamics in mathematics edu & tech design.links to sport in how representational approaches tend to foster fixed task constraints vs non-rep. fostering emergent task constraints during practice.

Alot of interesting overlaps between how motor learning and technology design frameworks explain and try to guide problem solving

Very nice article on new approaches to education. -

interesting ideas calling for frameworks on 'learning and teaching' here - - seems to make the applications of any theory development already embedded into the framework this way.
