Play, practice, or train?

Simple concepts we all understand, but what are their differences and when should you be doing each one? On this episode, we break that down.

This idea is based on an article, Gray wrote years ago, that still rings true.

First, we cover the basics, and Gray uses his kettlebell journey with Brett Jones as an example.

We talk cartwheels, tennis, South American football drills, martial arts, and how this topic applies to youth sports. Gray and Lee also give us an idea of what play looks like at their house.

For the pros, we get into coaching strategies, working around people’s limitations, and small group fitness options.
