546 – How Do Nonlinear & Linear Training Influence the Quantity and Quality of Search for a Movement Solution
The Perception & Action Podcast
How does the quality and quantity of search for a movement solution differ for linear and nonlinear training approaches? Is it the case that linear approaches restrict the development of functional movement variability? Is there any case for ever using a linear approach?
