Episode 8 - Transforming Basketball w/ Alex Sarama

On today’s show, we have Alex Sarama.  Alex is a basketball coach and the founder of Transforming Basketball, which is a company that specializes in coaching education and providing practical applications for sports coaches to implement sports training ecologically. Transforming Basketball is also the name of Alex’s new book, which was released earlier this year and is an absolute must-read for anyone trying to take on an ecological approach to their training environment.  In the show, we take a deep dive into all things motor learning, particularly how coaches can start to implement and utilize the constraints-led approach as part of their practice and game preparation design.  We also discuss various topics, such as tracking habits, identifying rate limiters, and other concepts that are crucial to developing a wholesome program within an athletic department.  This is absolutely one of our best episodes yet and I’m excited to hear what you all think about the episode.  If you enjoy the episode, feel free to follow us on Instagram at Hot Takes Performance Podcast.  Now let’s get to the episode with Alex Sarama.
