The SQLServerFast Execution Plan Video Training is an extensive set of videos, at this time not complete yet, to help SQL Server professionals learn and understand all they’ll ever need to know to read and understand execution plans; and to use this tool to identify causes of bad performance, and find ways to improve performance.

The focus in these videos is on being accessible and understandable, but also complete and correct. This means that videos will be of different duration. Most will be between 20 and 40 minutes, but expect exceptions on both ends.
