Catching up after a fun and inspiring @EsportsResNet conference! Great to present a couple of our projects and create new collaborations for future research. Particularly inspired by @ekwitkowski 's keynote. Still pondering over the 4th wave of esports and DIRT! @LJMUSportSci

Here’s a sneak peak of a new project @l_swettenham and I have been working on 😬🎙️ In an area that is so focused on performance, when is it good to feel comfortable in sport, and when is it best to push yourself? #psychology #sportpsychology #podcast
