I guess I am doing a bad job of explaining.
What I taught was a way of working. I didn't deviate from the practices, because the principles are easy to state but hard to truly grok.
Going back to what I said earlier, this is the difference between weightlifting drills for various parts of the movement, versus discussions of physiology, anatomy, anthropometry or physics.
You start with the drills.
- TeMPOraL 10y agoThanks for the clarification. So it's something like, first learn to do something in a decent way, and only then - when you're familiar with the subject matter - start thinking from first principles?
- jacques_chester 10y agoSort of. It's mostly about instilling habits of thought -- eg asking "how do we test this?" before touching a keyboard. Learning when and why to break the rule takes longer. It helps to first go through a bunch of concrete examples.
