0:55 Chris Buzzelli background as researcher / teacher
1:53 snippets of Chris riding
2:12 Definition of LEARNING - A relatively permanent change in an organisms behavior, due to experience
3:00 It's not Muscle Memory, rather a cognitive approach
3:55 Learning is laying pathways or building roads neurologically. If performing a trials skill is like going down a 4 lane highway, then you can do it without thinking about it.
4:58 Online and offline processing, conscience or sub conscious thought
5:20 Learning curves ie WHEELIE
7:10 Stance vs static balancing
8:30 Aperture of attention, vs mental overload. Attention spam can only focus on so much. If road is not well established, then your attention is filled.
9:58 Bad habbits and how we measure success. Wheelie - lifting the front with precision.
11:22 Feedback loops
11:50 Outputs - do this, do that. External auditory feedback
Inputs - what you are feeling.
13:22 Measuring the success of a Zap, consistency
14:20 Fundamentals needed bc system below where failure occurs is the system needing to work on
15:40 Validity and consistency
17:35 Fear eating up aperture of attention
18:12 Mastery of a wheelie, off lined, sub conscience process. Less likely to have interference.
19:40 How to Wheelie and reducing complexity of the code. Simplest code is the strongest code. Use of analogies, reducing fear
27:20 Internalizing the feeling for self feedback, input focused
29:50 Not copy and paste, but creating smaller zip files. Offloaded / automated motor programming less likely for interference. Zip file is a smaller file than original copy and pasted file
33:20 The importance of the basics. Not trying to learn to zap too soon
35:45 Brain chemicals, dopamine. Cool sexy side of trials. Main lining the addictive part of the drug. AHA moments
39:00 Part of the drug comes from challenge. Instead of splats, do hill climbs
43:22 Forgetting curve. Iinterference, less internal and external distraction
44:30 Over learning. "The amateur doesn't until they get it right. The professional does it until they can't get it wrong." Learn to a higher level than what you'll compete at bc there will be some competition regression/decay. You want to be above the level of competency required for the class you are riding.
48:00 When something is sore, it's time to stop so you don't make the road to nowhere. Developing bad habits.
48:53 How do you structure your practice sessions? Restructure goals. Striving to get to Invariance by increasing cambers, or adding roots. Steady progressions that strengthen the curve, build the road and challenge the system. Not degrade the form or add too much danger. Find the breaking point and isolate that variable.
53:20 building confidence to beat down fear
54:30 Practicing for the goals of the competition.
56:00 Bushwhacking your way through a section bc you don't have the skills developed.
57:13 Practice days, focus on technique and feedback loop and progression. Hardwire the programs and unpack the zip file.
58:00 The emotional side of cognition. Spiraling into the negative. How to pull back into confidence.
1:00:20 Focus on the "inputs" as you learn. What are you feeling?
1:03:00 why figure 8s and what to focus on during that time. Establishing metrics to judge your abilities.
1:04:20 Record yourself. - Sport
Great video coming from one neuro-geek to another. As a beginner I have been blessed to be able to learn from both Chris & Abigail Buzzelli and Ray Peters. They have taught me to stay focused on the basics and not to look at that bright shiny object that everyone else is focused on. For me trials is not just about tricks, it's about consistency and repeatability. I have said it more than once on here, if that rock or log looks too big, it probably is.
I ran after the bright & shiny 😜. Now I'm back on the path to consistency of the basics thanks to conversations like the above. 👌
So many words for "imagine what you want, do what you can, observe the differences, correct, repeat".
Great Summary
It’s more than imagining what is wanted and observing. There is discussion on appropriately breaking down techniques into their sub components, establishing the markers for success, learning to recognize decay, managing the variables that contribute to cognitive bottlenecks, etc.
Great Video Tom and Chris! More, more, more please!!! I think I got the most out the focusing on what your “feeling” while doing a technique. And I’m really glad you asked Chris for examples of inputs and outputs at the end. Was also happy to hear that guys learning later in life don’t necessarily need a 4lane highway, because at 1st that sounded a little overwhelming! 😅 keep up the good work!
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the feedback 😉
That was THE BEST instructional Trials video in my opinion. Game changer. So much logic and gems for ways of thinking through the proper way to learn Trials or anything else for that matter. Thanks Chris for helping us all along the path better. I’ll be re-watching this video a few times to always remind myself to it properly
Thank you. 👍 I keep getting insight from it as well after multiple watchings
What an epic video, Iv loved all the videos you have put together. You are a pillar in the community! Keep at it brother
Thank you
More! I stumbled across this video while in the first few days of what will be a multi-month recovery from an injury racing with my local flattrack club. I'd never really thought about the process of learning as it applies to our sports, but this approach makes so much sense....CLICK! This has caused me to really think about the value of breaking down the elements of riding into smaller pieces that can be more easily processed and shifted into the subconscious. Thanks for bringing this valuable perspective to a broader audience.
Sorry to hear about your injury man that stinks.
Thanks for sharing and watching. I hope to have more in the works.
@@TrialsProgressionthanks. I’m still processing the experience and trying to turn it into something positive. This discussion with Chris will definitely help me achieve that. Also considering a trials bike as a training tool when I get back on two wheels. I’ve enjoyed watching your content and the methods you present.
I made it to the end as well, it flew by 😎
Great to hear 👊
More! Great zip file idea, love it
Great video, it's like Keith Code approach for trials! Makes so much sense!👍
Awesome
Great video on the learning process, what helps or doesn't and how to back a level to improve. A couple things I've thought about and this video reinforced is: 1) as I'm still new to this what I'm learning is perishable and 2) recording my practice is critical for me to see my mistakes (or even see me getting it right once in a while). Thanks guys!
Right on. So much good stuff there. You are making great progress 👍
I'm a street trials rider (bmx), youtube recommended this clip.. very interesting and applicable to my sport also! reminded me of the old "twist of the wrist" keith code book from my road racing days :) thanks!
Awesome. Thanks for watching
this is excellent stuff, thankyou
Glad you enjoyed it 👌
Awesome video!
Thanks
This is an epic video. I love the concept of skiping splats and focusing on bricks, from which we can build later on. Also fear and stress being accepted and blocking the learning (not mentioning the danger of crash). Focus on what we are doing, and being repeatable. when we are aware what we do we can alter it vs doing movements in auto-mode. the video is soo full of great stuff... Thanks Tom :)
Fantastic video. AAA+++.
Thanks so much. Chris is great
Great content. I'd certainly be interested in hearing more from Chris. Get him set up with some better audio equipment for the next one.
Good point
2 months late ,
But absolutely awesome vid ! ! Thankyou!
Thank you
