Episode #24 - The Best: How Elite Athletes Are Made | with Dr. Mark Williams
I am joined by Dr. Mark Williams - a professor at the University of Utah and author of the book "The Best: How Elite Athletes Are Made". In his book, Dr. Williams outlines a variety of factors that shape elite athletes and influence their development. Some of those influences we discussed on the podcast are: the environment in which athletes are born and develop, unorganized sports and their impact on skill development, early specializations and its advantages/disadvantages, and much more!

All that and more with Matt Comand, a high performance coach and a former sport psychology professor.
