Athletes must focus, process information and execute mechanics to stimulate the neuromuscular system laying down motor patterns until the patterns become automatic.⁠ ⁠ At TWIST we integrate decision-making and reaction skills into drill situations through a variety of coaching methods. Initially, the movements in drills like these are done slowly to encourage excellent movement skill patterning, progressively b...
