WEEK 6 - Inspired by BRUCE LEE

Or at least i believe so...

I built this device to improve hand eye coordination some years back.

Its like a non-violent punching bag , that's very well suited to the indoors...
However a little , budget construction is required, good fun none the less!!

Materials-

1 Foot of light chain - The lightest chain available.

1-1.5 foot of Elastic - quiet thick elastic

1 Practice golf ball, or other light golf ball sized ball.

1 piece of blu tac or a thumb tac, depending on where is suitable to affix your brand new indoor non-violent punching bag.

Now simply tie the elastic to the end of the chain, then the golf ball to the end of the elastic! tadah!!

Now blue tac or thumb tack the top of the chain to either your ceiling, or in a door jam.

Trim the elastic so that the ball sits about chest height.

EXERCISES-

Start with light fist or palm taps, alternating from left to right. you will notice the chain/elastic combination provides a very erratic movement of the ball....

Try facing left or right foot forward, and then alternate.

This Isnt meant to be easy!! However with daily practice, you will notice improvement!!

And once you feel comfortable try hitting the golf ball while on the wobble board. At first it will seem like both are impossible!! However with effort and determination , it gets easier...

After days and weeks you may not feel like hitting while balancing is getting easier. However you will notice, that it greatly improves your standalone balance!!

This tequinque is a great lead into learning how to juggle!!

Have a good day!!

WEEK 5 - A harder exercise i am yet to find....

This so so simple yet so so effective...

In order to build the cerbellum, we have to stimulate the nerves , to work harder than they are used to normally work.

Just like bulding muscle, by using controlled resistance exercises, using controlled exercise that requires the cerebellum to work harder than it is used to, stimulates the cerebllum to grow "stronger" so it can handle this new wokload its given....

So the aim of using a balance board, is that it takes up alot of the cerebellums "resources", so that an extra tasks it is given , require it to work quite hard...

So week 5 exercises -
Do a 5- minute warm up, by getting relaxed while balancing.... Try some grounding or breathing techniques...

And once comfortable balancing, hold a piece of paper or a book in your hands. After 1 minute of balancing while holding the book, Start reading.... Or at least trying to read...

When i do this, it overloads my cerebellum, and i can only read while im not maintaining balance... And this is a great measure , of the level of "strength" of your cerrebellum...

For me , reading an balancing are not something i can do at the same time... However i only discovered this yesterday!! So ive now included reading a passage from a magizine, at the end, of my daily exercise...

With daily practice, i will be able to read while balancing!!

Have a great day!!

Beating ADD with The Wobble Board

Two of the many tasks that the cerebellum controls are balance and coordination.

Using a wobble board enables you to find the limits of balance, and with daily exercise, improve balance, to a point of being comfortable while balancing. As you progress, you actually notice the daily improvements...

This improvement comes from Stimulating and building the neural pathways of the cerebellum, actually increasing the nerve activity... When the cerebellum becomes more capable to control balance it becomes capable to control FOCUS!!

It has been proven that ADDers have underdeveloped cerebellums, and so medication is prescribed to stimulate the nerve activity in the cerebellum to compensate.

A huge revelation that will amaze you if you are willing to try using a wobble board, is that balance is not even a challenge when you have taken Stimulants.

You will also notice , that balance in the morning , when you have just awoken, is very challenging indeed.

However with Daily practice morning exercises become easier and easier, Which is a natural , non-drug assisted improvement!!

Using a wobble board , is way of naturally increasing the brains capacity to perform at the necessary level, without the need to use stimulants!!

However it takes time, it takes persistence, it takes effort! But its all worth it!

This is the perfect approach , to taking your power back from your labelled condition , and living with empowerment!!

Once you know what you want, and you know how to get it, nothing but effort stands in your way!!
