The Nervous System Cost of Sprinting

Shallow is joined by Veronica Zuccala, Pre-Script coach and neuroscience graduate, to unpack what sprinting really demands from the body and the nervous system. We bridge the gap between neuroscience, biomechanics, and real-world coaching experience, covering skill acquisition, prediction error, weight room transfer, and more.
