Shownotes

In this episode, Dr. Daniel Laby zooms out from drills and techniques and explores the future of sports vision training.

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN:

  • We’re entering the Cognitive Athletics Revolution, where training the brain is as important as training the body.
  • Pro-level vision and cognitive tools are now accessible to everyday athletes.
  • Adaptive systems personalize training in real time based on your performance.
  • Advances in neuroplasticity let athletes improve visual-cognitive skills faster and more precisely.
