Book Neuroscience applied to soccer  Practical proposal

Download or read book Neuroscience applied to soccer Practical proposal written by Manuel J. Crespo García and published by Wanceulen S.L.. This book was released on 2019-12-12 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To say that soccer is played with your feet, it's like thinking that chess is played with your hands. The player must be in optimal condition to compete and to perform at their best level during matches. To achieve the perfection of the game models, the coaches tend to crumble the game with principles, subprinciples, more subprinciples... that allow us to explain how our team plays, and this often causes our workouts to be lost in improving isolated technical factors, that we think are the ones that make players err. Applying the benefits of neuroscience, the indicators and stimuli that we use in the training tasks will be the own of soccer, so that there is a greater transfer. There is a very strong educational trend entrenched in these concepts and every day is reflected in the teaching of sports. But, this trend, if not interpreted well, can lead to errors and not achieve the intended results. The goal is that the training of our brain is related to soccer, and that the skills or advances that are achieved, have a direct impact on during the game. Reacting by pressing when the coach's whistle blows, seeing the red color on a paper or when the number of a mathematical operation is even, from the perspective of how he learns our brains, will not get the same benefits for the soccerer as pressing after losing the ball, after bad control of the opponent or after the opponent's arrival in a danger zone.

Book The Playmaker s Advantage

Download or read book The Playmaker s Advantage written by Leonard Zaichkowsky and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-06-12 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover the next frontier in sports training—improving your mental game, no matter your age or experience—and how to become the Playmaker, both in your professional and personal life. Coaches search for it. Parents dream of it. Fans love it. Athletes want it. The playmaker on any sports team possesses it: an elusive, intangible quality combining anticipation, perception, and decision-making skills. This quality raises their game above the competition and allows them to pass when no one else can, anticipate the movement of opponents, avoid costly mental mistakes, and ultimately, hold the team together. Now, for the first time, cognitive science research is revealing the secrets of the playmaker’s keen sense of awareness. Just as tests of speed, strength, and agility have provided a baseline of physiological biomarkers, coaches can now capture cognitive metrics including attention, pattern recognition, anticipation, and the ability to take quick, decisive action during the chaos of competition. The Playmaker’s Advantage is a groundbreaking book that will educate athletes of all ages about this essential creative capability in an accessible, easy to understand method.
