"[I]f you intensely think at the same time as you intensely exercise, your performance in both thinking and moving can worsen." - Hallo friend WELCOME TO AMERICA, In the article you read this time with the title "[I]f you intensely think at the same time as you intensely exercise, your performance in both thinking and moving can worsen.", we have prepared well for this article you read and download the information therein. hopefully fill posts Article AMERICA, Article CULTURAL, Article ECONOMIC, Article POLITICAL, Article SECURITY, Article SOCCER, Article SOCIAL, we write this you can understand. Well, happy reading.

Title : "[I]f you intensely think at the same time as you intensely exercise, your performance in both thinking and moving can worsen."

"[I]f you intensely think at the same time as you intensely exercise, your performance in both thinking and moving can worsen."

"But your muscles’ performance will decline much more than your brain’s will," according to a new study, the NYT reports.

The study was based on testing a group of young men — rowers at Cambridge University in England — on 3 occasions: 1. The sat and memorized words, 2. They worked a rowing machine, 3. They memorized words while working a rowing machine.

Almost uniformly, the men had been able to produce fewer watts [on the machine] and recall fewer words when they performed the muscular and mental tasks together.

But the falloff in physical functioning was much steeper than the mental slump. The rowers lost almost 13 percent of their power output, a decline that was about 30 percent greater than their loss in word recall after the combined session.

“Our proposed explanation for this finding is that they were both competing for the same resource,” which in this case was blood sugar for fuel, says Danny Longman, a postdoctoral research fellow at Cambridge who led the study.

And the brain won.

I'm not impressed that the brain generally "wins." It was a rowing machine, not a run to capture needed food or to escape escape injury. I suspect it's just more interesting to memorize words then to row a machine and maybe pride motivates Cambridge college guys to pay more attention to an intelligence test.

Now, I'm reading the comments over there. Here's the highest-rated one: "The rowing didn't last long enough to deplete the muscles' stored glycogen; they weren't competing with the brain for anything but 'attention.' This protocol was useless for addressing the stated hypothesis."

Second-highest: "Assuming the info about this study has been accurately described this is the silliest thing ever concluded. An equally appropriate conclusion as to what might be causing the decrease in 'power output' of the muscles is the brain's decrease in 'attention output' to muscle task versus mental one!

I find that mental distraction improves my physical ability. When I'm walking or biking and get very absorbed in my thoughts — for example, thinking up an idea for a book and planning it —  I'm better at the physical activity because I'm not paying attention to it. If I think about the next hill or how far I am from the end, I feel the strain and get balky. But with active thought, the body is automatic and efficient.

Thus articles "[I]f you intensely think at the same time as you intensely exercise, your performance in both thinking and moving can worsen."

that is all articles "[I]f you intensely think at the same time as you intensely exercise, your performance in both thinking and moving can worsen." This time, hopefully can provide benefits to all of you. Okay, see you in another article posting.

You now read the article "[I]f you intensely think at the same time as you intensely exercise, your performance in both thinking and moving can worsen." with the link address https://welcometoamerican.blogspot.com/2017/10/if-you-intensely-think-at-same-time-as.html
