The 10 Levels of Pressure

 Training progresses through 10 levels of increasing time pressure and cognitive load to drive skill automation. This allows academies to:

  • Track the “Transfer of Training” from training to the pitch
  • Provide objective clarity on real performance impact
  • Identify talent through Neural Efficiency
  • Reduce reliance on physical maturity as the primary evaluation metric
