Motor skill acquisition and athlete development practices are
rapidly evolving. Positioned at the forefront of this evolution,
the constraints-led approach encourages practitioners to consider
the athlete as a whole person, with unique traits, abilities, and
capacities. Accordingly, an athlete's competitive success lies in
the practitioner's ability to adapt their programming to the unique
needs of each athlete and to develop an understanding of the
athlete-environment relationship. A Constraints-led Approach to
Swim Coaching applies contemporary motor skill acquisition and
athlete development practices to swimming. This book encourages
coaches to re-consider how they approach skill development in a
sport that requires considerable physical training and highly
efficiency movement. It presents a framework for identifying the
various constraints that determine the ability to perform at a high
level. It then offers coaches' practical examples to navigate the
manipulation of constraints to support the development of physical
capacities and the ability to effectively utilize those capacities
through efficient movement. These frameworks are broadly inclusive
to the global sports programming market. The book is written
through a 'conversive' voice and is accessible to a broad audience
interested in athlete development and programming such as coaches,
sport scientists, support staff, athletes, and parents. At the same
time, academics, and students in the areas of sport coaching,
biomechanics, motor skill acquisition, strength and conditioning,
and related disciplines will find interest in the insights provided
from this underrepresented niche in sports.
