Already well known within Norway, but maybe popularized or at least brought to attention to the rest of the beach volleyball world by the Beach Volley Vikings video released a few years ago (https://youtu.be/tcPPemwQUL8?si=XKJlHYtRu1EZ2UOU), is the "Hogwarts of Volleyball" aka ToppVolley school in Sand, Norway.
A number of weeks ago I happened to meet and play beach volleyball with Leon Saltbones Lauvland, a recent graduate from the very same school and an interesting guy overall (who had also partly worked for the school and has his own Youtube channel), so I proposed that we'd record a podcast episode as a bit of an "inside look" of what it's like going to probably the worlds most famous volleyball specific highschool.
He agreed and let me pick his brains for a couple of hours, and here's the result. We talk about lots of topics in this episode of the Learn Beach Volleyball Fast podcast, what daily life is like at the school, how they get trained there, some of the philosophies of the school, injury prevention but also making the most out of injuries... As always we also of course talk some even more beach volleyball specific stuff, which this time was mostly about "recycling" a ball that has been set too close to a big opponent blocker, and playing well with different partners.
There was probably more also that I don't remember right now! But overall I am happy with this episode, I think there will be something of value for almost any beach volleyball interested listener out there, so why not kickstart 2024 with some fresh perspectives on how one can think about becoming an even better player?!
Comments and thoughts more than welcome as always! (Youtube link for comments section: https://youtu.be/jSHFo26epbM)

In this episode I take a walk around the lake with 2 time Swedish beach volleyball Olympian Björn Berg, picking his brain about all sorts of things beach volleyball that I find interesting and helpful!
Feel free to take a walk and listen at the same time, I can almost guarantee you'll learn a thing or two that you can apply to your own game in one way or another!
Topics covered are: Collaboration with your playing partner, smart attacking (and what it is), sports psychology and the mental game (both as an individual and within the team), longevity (how to play the game at a high level for a long time), confidence and serve receive, and more!

--------------------------------------------
During the "smart attacking" part of the episode, Björn talked a fair bit about the power of being able to control the ball with one's wrist. I can't guarantee Björn would agree with everything I personally tend to teach about using the wrist, but if you want to dive deeper into the topic, here's at least one very well liked video that I have made about using the wrist when attacking: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZd-UMM6is8

Should we aim to become complete players that have no weaknesses in the game? Is that even realistic? Should we aim for something else?
This quick episode discusses this in a way that could lead to career-strategy-altering insights, hope you enjoy!

Becoming better at beach volleyball is a goal many of us have, and the better and sharper tools we have for making that journey more efficient, the easier it will be to reach that goal. Regardless of if your problem is in passing, setting, attacking, defense, blocking, serving, the mental game, career strategy or anything else that is relevant, I believe podcast listening can be a crucial tool for gaining those skills.
In short, my claim is that podcasts can give you crucial in depth understanding of nuances of the game that you actually won't reach in other ways, all while costing you no money, practically speaking no time, and even making your life more enjoyable in the process.
Sounds too good to be true? I'm sure it might, but I believe this video will change your mind and give you efficient pathways towards mastery that you might never have thought of before.
If you feel that you don't have time to watch this video, you can listen to it "on the go" instead. Find it at https://www.learnbeachvolleyballfast.com/blog/2023/6/24/17-podcast-listening-and-beach-volleyball-the-most-important-tool-for-becoming-better or at https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/17-podcast-listening-and-beach-volleyball-the/id1485342736?i=1000618204114 or by finding episode 17 on the Learn Beach Volleyball Fast Podcast in your favorite podcast app!

At 7:30 in this episode/video, I talk about how much payoff listening to for example 100 minutes of in depth, very nuanced discussions about certain aspects of the game has. I hope the point gets across in this episode already with what I said in the video, but I was debating whether or not to add more arguments for why investing this time is worthwhile for you.
Here is the script for a part of this episode that I ended up not adding, but it's here for you to read if you need/want more arguments:
"The thing is, 100 minutes of listening to theory might seem like a waste of time, but let’s say you decide to not do that and continue believing you should always square up when setting.. And one third of your sets end up being bad because you focus on squaring up instead of focusing on things that actually matter in the situations where you shouldn’t square up.
What’s going to happen?
Well, you will be frustrated because you can’t set well. So you’ll probably go and practice setting and squaring up even more. Let’s say you on average end up practicing setting and squaring up for 15 minutes per week because of your frustrations… One year has 52 weeks, which becomes 780 minutes.. Let’s say you do that for 3 years, that’s over 2300 minutes that you will end up practicing the things that actually won’t make you better! Now that 100 minute theory lesson that would save you from all this wasted practice doesn’t sound too bad right?!
The real cost of believing in false ideas about beach volleyball technique and information is one of many podcast episodes I will create in the future also, but for now, I hope this gives you some food for thought.
(And by the way, let me know in the comment below if you want me to make this in depth episode about squaring up or not when setting sooner rather than later!)"---------------------------------------------------------------

"When you get the chance to listen to a coach who has won this much at such a high level, you better sit down, listen, and take notes" is what my friend said about the fact that I was about to record a podcast with Steve Anderson.
Now you have the chance to sit down or take a walk and listen to this very conversation, something you do not want to miss if becoming better at beach volleyball, avoiding mistakes and pitfalls that many fall into, or learning faster is something you are interested in. Hope you enjoy!

Is there a different way of going about becoming a better beach volleyball player than what most players do?
There definitely is, and this episode has in a sense two different missions: The first one is to invite you to see new possibilities in terms of how to gain new skills and become a better player, and the second one is for you to understand the background of the Learn Beach Volleyball Fast project better - so that you and all other beach volleyball players can gain more value from it in the future.

Welcome to the first solo-episode on the Learn Beach Volleyball Fast podcast! When starting this podcast, I wanted to create lots of different types of episodes, and this type of episode was definitely a part of the plan.
In some of these solo-episodes, I will follow a simple formula: personal development concept + beach volleyball = episode idea. Basically I will take lessons from the personal development/business/self help/psychology space and apply them specifically to beach volleyball.
This will lead to two things:
1. An interesting way to get introduced to ideas that can help you in your life in general.
2. Next level beach volleyball advice. Sometimes, about the game, sometimes about how to think about your development as a player, sometimes something else.. No matter what, this stuff is here to help you learn beach volleyball faster.
This first solo episode will be about a concept called opportunity cost, and how doing things that are good for you can still destroy you because these things are at the same time hindering you from doing something that would be even better for you. Hope you enjoy!
And since this is my first solo-episode, I probably have tons to learn for future episodes. So don’t hestitate to send me feedback so I can make better episodes for you guys, either to [email protected] or in the Youtube comment section for this episode.
Youtube comment section: https://youtu.be/pwPbGlp2fqw (Go here for leaving feedback, but also to read and share your own examples of opportunity cost in action within beach volleyball.. Together with discussions we can make the learning moments from this episode even bigger!)

Are there things one can do to learn sports (whether it's beach volleyball, golf, or something else) faster and more efficiently than the average player/athlete?
John Richardson who succeeded in his one year golf challenge that had critics all over the world telling his goal was flat out impossible and pro players telling him to "dream on", definately thinks there are a lot of things one can optimize to learn sports faster than most. And to be fair, so does Alex who is the creator of the Learn Beach Volleyball Fast project and the host of the Learn Beach Volleyball Fast podcast. Join the second episode of the podcast to listen in on part 2 of a discussion about tons of things that could accelerate also your sports career!

Another book that was also mentioned in the podcast is "The ONE Thing" by Gary Keller and Jay Papasan which is basically a life/business book about how to get more done in less time. Surprisingly (?!) those same principles also seem to work for learning a sport faster, so this book is also on my recommended reads list! https://amzn.to/2CJjClM
In the podcast episode John talked about his mindmaps around variables of success in golf, cycling and life in general, and that he was happy to share them with listeners. When I had a look at these mindmaps my mind went: "damn this is actually pretty much a life work" (especially the one around life success, which basically is a personal development book rough draft and has clearly taken a LONG time to put together), so I actually almost felt like I'd be stealing someone's life work if I upload it here. So what I've done is contacted John just to double check he actually wants to give it away just to be sure. I believe he will but we might have to add some copyright stuff to it. Anyway, I'll update this description with links etc once we have had a second look at this. Send me a message or write a comment if you are reading this in hopes of finding those mindmaps and got slightly disappointed now and feel I need an extra reminder to hurry up with this, I'll try to get them up as soon as possible!
