Today’s guest is Dr. Rob Gray, Associate Professor of Human Systems Engineering at Arizona State University and the mind behind the Perception Action Podcast. Rob is one of the leading voices in ecological dynamics and the constraints-led approach, helping coaches design practices that look and feel like the game. We dig into how to build “representative” sessions when you only have one or two athletes, why variability is the lowest-hanging fruit in skill acquisition, the power of external cues, and practical ways to add the right constraints to your small-sided games. Rob also shares where he sees the field going—AI-assisted coaching, motion tracking, and how smarter training can reduce injuries. If you coach lacrosse—or any invasion sport—you’ll come away with plug-and-play ideas for tomorrow’s practice.
