Have you ever wondered what makes top athletes like Stephen Curry, Tom Brady, Serena Williams, and Lionel Messi; as well as musical virtuosos, dancers, rock climbers, race-car drivers, and more so successful? Is it merely an innate genius or a skill that they are born with? Zach, a successful journalist and popular sports writer, was curious and so found himself on a quest to discover what actually drives human movement and its spectacular potential. Across all sports, new theories and revolutionary technology are revealing how the brain’s motor control system works including the groundbreaking work of two neuroscientists. In this conversation, I discuss with Zach his research as he travelled the world interviewing experts on motor control.
