Performance plateaus are part of skill learning - noted in 1897 in training Morse code to telegraphers: steady improvement for 20 weeks, performance plateau 6 weeks, then improvement for 12 weeks. So plateaus can occur but can precede more improvement!!!!

⁦@KhimKwah⁩ presents great qual study examining barriers to physical activity for stroke survivors in Singapore - amazing incentives for PA in Singapore include supermarket vouchers for steps - but info was needed to address needs of stroke survivors to increase PA

Great presentation from @sthilarajah co-designed with 17 stroke survivors!!! And produced videos of exercises suiting Singaporean stroke survivors. Very topical @msjuliedavey @gillyminn @JanelleBowden @brian_beh
