In this episode of Hoops and Health, we go far beyond the box score to explore the complex, real-time systems that drive athletic performance. We are joined by two incredible experts who study…
It's like every person is ultimately going to find a way to succeed and do it at the least amount of energy.
And right away, I'm thinking that probably person has a vertical heterophoria and they actually, when they tilt their head, in my perspective, they're probably getting better binocularity when they tilt their head in that direction.
It actually creates torsion and other parts where it can affect their shooting dynamics.
These high-performance athletes, they will do everything and everything to be successful.
And sometimes they go... months without showing it to anybody else because they're so good at hiding these things.
I like the smiles that you both have on your faces and how excited you are to go back and forth on some of these pieces.
Kevin, when I first talked to you as well about coming on, we talked about hand-eye coordination and people throw around hand-eye coordination all the time.
And as I was thinking about what to questions that I had for you was there's a piece of hand-eye coordination from a delivery point, so hitting a target, but then there's also a receptive hand-eye coordination portion.
From a basketball standpoint in the game, we do balance and we do a lot of different sensory inputs into different rehabs and different return to plays.
So we know that ankle sprains are one of our top, top incidences for injuries that occur.
