How to practice effectively…for just about anything – Annie Bosler and Don Greene

To master any physical skill,
Whether they dance ballet,
Play a musical instrument,
Or throw a baseball,
The practice is required.
Practice is to repeat the deeds and actions with a view to improvement of them,
And help us to perform these acts fast and easy.
So, what to do practice in our brains to make us good at doing something?
Our brains contain two types of nerve tissue:
Gray material
White material.
The gray matter of the brain processes information,
By directing and sensory stimuli signals to neurons,
The white matter consists mostly of fatty tissue and fibers nervous.
To move our bodies, must
The information transmitted from gray matter located in the brain,
To the bottom of the spinal cord,
Through a series of nerve fibers called the “axis”
To reach our muscles.
So how can practice and repetition affect the inner workings of our brains?
Axes in the white matter
Wrapped in a fatty substance called the “myelin”.
This cover, no myelin, or sheath, can be changed by practice.
Myelin is similar to the existing insulation in electrical cables.
Which prevents the loss of energy from the electrical signals used by the brain,
To move more efficiently along the neural pathways.
Some recent studies on mice suggest that the frequency of physical movement.
Increases the sheath myelin which isolates axes layers.
The existence of many layers, it means a great insulation around the axis chains,
Thus forming what looks like a highway to move the information
That connects the brain to muscles.
So, while many of the athletes and artists
Their successes go back to their muscle memory,
The muscle is not a memory in itself.
In fact, the production of neural pathways prone
Is the one who gives these athletes and artists distinguished performance,
Through the corridors nervous faster and more efficient.
There are many theories that attempt
Determine the number of hours, days, even years of practice
We need to master any skill.
In fact, we have no magic number,
We know that the mastery of the skill is not about the number of hours of practice.
But also the quality and effectiveness of this practice.
Effective practice consistent,
Focused,
The target content or weaknesses
Existing at the limits of the potential of the current person.
So, it was the effective exercise is the key,
How to take advantage of training time?
These are some tips:
Focus on the task.
Minimizing any potential interference from your PC or TV
And activate the flight mode in the phone.
In one study, researchers from the observation of 260 students who are studying.
in the middle,
They noted that these students are able to focus on one task for only six minutes.
Notebook computers, smart phones, especially with Facebook
They are the sources of distraction.
Start slowly or slowing the movement.
Consistency is built on repetition, whether it is true or false
If you gradually increase the speed of good duplicates,
You have a good chance to do them properly.
Also, frequent repetitions with taking some rest periods is common
When the technical elite.
Studies indicate that a number of athletes, musicians, dancers and professional,
Spend 50-60 hours a week and they are trained in activities related to their work.
Many of them are dividing the effective training time
Several sessions of daily training for limited periods.
Finally, imagine your training with all the details.
Surprisingly some thing that a number of studies suggest that
Once you have done a physical movement,
It can be improved only by imaginable.
In the study, 144 were divided basketball player into two groups.
Group A trained to throw the ball
While group B train mentally, any Baltejel they throw the ball.
After two weeks and during the evaluation process,
The players showed those with mid-level professional in both groups
Almost the same amount of improvement.
While science shows us the secrets of the brain gradually,
Our understanding of effective training will evolve for the better.
At present, effective training remains the best way we have
To go beyond our borders personal,
Achieving new heights,
And improve our capabilities.
