Episode notes
Movement Is Brain-First
- The brain, not muscles, controls how tight muscles feel and how we move.
- Vestibular, visual and proprioceptive inputs set the quality of that control.
Vestibular Case Sparked His Neuro Focus
- Markus's early vestibular work began after helping a client with vestibular trauma from a car accident.
- That case sparked his deeper study into brain-driven movement and performance.
Prime Your Brain With A Quick Warm-Up
- Do quick neural warm-ups before play to 'prime' the motor cortex for better movement.
- Spend 3–5 minutes on simple opposite-hand targeting drills to improve reaction and coordination.
