THE PRINCIPLES OF THE BRAIN TRAINING

     It is very hard to create a training system for the brain. Specialists know how to train memory, attention, how to read pages quickly, how to learn foreign languages quickly and so on. But to find how to train the brain through its interactions with body movements or more precise with body muscles, it is mostly impossible. It is well understood that the brain works and participates in any movements of the body or body parts Any muscle contractions can also influence on the brain even as a feed back of the process of contraction. But in the DIRECT action our brain initiates the primary signals for muscles contractions and controls all the process including the speed until they fulfill the task. The brain knows the task, guides the whole programs of cell contractions, speed of the action and works in the routine regime. It is hardly could be named as training for the brain.

     Training can occur in the situation when the brain has to solve problems, which appear during the process of any disturbances to the body from the outside environment. The disturbance can be as simple as a single push or as a longer process with various speeds and loads. It means that for the brain training the REFLEX action can be successfully suitable. SO THE REFLEX ACTION IS THE MAIN PRINCIPLE OF THE BRAIN TRAINING.

     It is necessary to mention that the sensors of human body are working in a discrete system. The proprioceptors or any others sensors are triggered off the action potentials (negative nerve impulses) only when the disturbances or changing positions reach the sensory level. For a sample a person can hear sound over definite frequency and can feel the differences of the sound in some bells, can feel 1/1000 of a pound and its changes, can feel 1/100 of degree of movement rotation and its changes and so on. Each time when the disturbances from outside have exceeded the level of sensitivity the sensors have make the action potentials. It should be taken in to consideration that the sensors function is depended on the level of the disturbances load. The higher load brings the less sensitivity of the sensors as an adaptation of sensory system but without changing of the discrete system. So THE DISCRETE WORK OF THE SENSOR SYSTEM IS THE SECOND PRINCIPLE OF THE BRAIN TRAINING.

     With a single push to the body, the receptors got the single disturbances and triggered off a single action potential equal to the forth of pushing, which starts the reflex arc simultaneously with the body balance and equilibrium. But when a powered machine is continuously pushing (moving) the body or its part like leg or arm the body receptors will trigger off the action potentials each time when disturbances will exceed the sensitivity level of the receptors. For an example if a person will stand on one leg and another leg he will put on a treadmill, which runs two mph. So his leg will be moved (pushed) with 2 mph speed with the distance of three feet. In a case that the receptors will sensor 1/10 of inch in moving of the three feet, the person would have al least 360 reflex arcs and together with each arc he should keep equilibrium and balance. The treadmill will also push the leg with some forth. This forth will be proximally changed from zero to 50 lb and back to zero. Two miles per hour would be equal 2,9 feet per second. It means that a person will cover 3 feet for one second. So one hundred changes from 0 to 50lb and back to 0 will be happened also for one second. Let us presume that the sensitivity level of proprioceptors would be 1/100 of the pound. So one hundred pounds in changing by the forth of the treadmill will create 10000 reflex arcs in one second. It is necessary also to add all brain integrations with equilibrium and balance of the body. In summary it could be mentioned that for one step on the treadmill for one second our brain would have to analyze more than 10 000 reflex arcs, approximately 10 000 positions of balance and equilibrium and a lot of integrations with another body systems.

    For the brain training it is very important to use powered fitness machines, which power will create the situation of pushing, moving, loading and others disturbances to the athlete body or his legs and arms. It could be specialized machines, designed and made especially for some kind of sport like boxing, tennis, golf, swimming, baseball, basketball, volleyball and so on. The machines should make the disturbances to the athlete muscles, mostly involved in the main sport actions like boxing punch. This situation will stimulate the sensors of these muscles to work in high frequency reflex actions with the speed of 1000 to 10 000 times per second. So it is understandable that the athlete brain will get up to 10 000 the reflex arcs together with the balance and equilibrium of his body. Each reflex arc can be considered as a single direct action of the main muscle of the sport action, for an example a boxing punch. So a boxer can make more than 10 000 boxing punches per second loading not only the muscles but also training the brain. THE POWERED MACHINE SHOULD WORK WITH THE BODY AND MAKE THE DISTURBANCES TOWARD BODY OR ITS LEGS AND ARMS. This is the THIRD PRINCIPLE OF THE BRAIN TRAINING.

     Any body movements and exercises demand its balance and equilibrium, which always determine by the human vestibular sensitive system. It should be understood, that vestibular system triggers of its signals after the disturbances shake the body and together with the signals from propioceprots and receptors have rushed to the Premotor Area  and the Sensori Association Cortex for coordination and integration various forms of movements. So the vestibular sensory system is the additional very important source of signals, which our brain should analyzes and integrates with others signals received from proprioceptors. To enhance the role of the vestibular system it is necessary to hold the unstable body position, which can be reached in mostly all exercises with the powered machines by standing on one leg or work with one arm. The pushing forth of the machine will shift the body constantly from its balance and vestibular system will also work in continues regime. Its signals should be considered by the brain and take a great role in keeping balance and equilibrium together with the brain training. So THE UNSTABLE POSITION OF THE BODY IS THE FOURTH PRINCIPLE OF THE BRAIN TRAINING.

     The vast volume of information a person is getting through his eyes, which can measure the distances, speed, accelerations, verticals, horizontals, colors, lines, edges, shapes and many others parameters. All eyes signals rush directly to the Primary Visual Cortex of the brain, where they are analyzed and if necessary they are participating in coordination and integration of various form of muscle work through Cerebellum, Basal Ganglia and Sensory Association Cortex. Everybody knows that with any movements to keep the balance of the body with open eyes is much easier comparison with the closed eyes situation. So in order to concentrate the attention of the brain to the muscle communication, to increase ability of the brain to work with muscles only on the base of their signals and to accelerate integration and cooperation processes in the brain it is necessary to work with the powered machines in unstable position with closed eyes. It is very hard job for the brain, which has to increase the speed of all nerve processes to keep proper balance end equilibrium and movements. It is interesting to mention that chousing the speed of the powered machine, which makes the disturbances to the body a person can find its speed limit for correct and proper movement. Above this limit a person would be unable to keep the balance. Keeping the brain training for a wail a person will notice that the limit of the speed could be increasing, what can show that the brain will increase its nerve signal speeds. SO THE CLOSED EYES IS THE FIFTH PRINCIPLE OF THE BRAIN TRAINING.
