Define positive and negative transfer in sports
Positive transfer: we increase our speed of learning by transferring similar skills.

Negative transfer: the previously learnt skills have a detrimental effect.

Difference between types of practices
Massed practice: is a continuous type of skill practice in which the rest periods are shorter than the practice periods (mainly used in fitness based skills).
Distributed: longer periods of rest or practice of another skill. Often used with beginners or when motivation is low.
Whole practice: involves practicing the skill as a whole.
Part practice: when the skill is split into its subroutines
