The Forgetting Curve: Why Coaches Need to Repeat 3 Times

You deliver a great training session. Three weeks later: 80% is forgotten. Sound familiar? This is the forgetting curve — and there is a proven solution.

What Is the Forgetting Curve?

Hermann Ebbinghaus discovered in 1885 that our brains forget information exponentially fast if we don't repeat it. After 1 day, an average of 50% is gone. After a week, 80%.

Spaced Repetition: The Counterattack

• Repetition 1: 1 day after the lesson
• Repetition 2: 3 days later
• Repetition 3: 1 week later
• Repetition 4: 3 weeks later
• After 4 repetitions: knowledge is in long-term memory
