Making it Stick: Interleaved Practice (Part One)
⚡ The Short Version
Blocked practice feels good but limits long-term learning. Repeating one exercise repeatedly builds confidence in the moment, but research shows this method doesn't optimize retention.
Interleaved practice—mixing different skills during each session—produces better lasting results. Varying your practice tasks strengthens your ability to apply techniques flexibly in real performance situations.
