If you have asked yourself:
"How do I improve my golf game?"
Here is a powerful answer:
"...exploratory examinations of
touring professional golfers, experienced golf instructors,
and golf students with low to mid handicaps showed EEG
biofeedback differences between professional golfers who
revealed automatic motor processes and less experienced
golfers whose skills have not been encoded as overlearned. The
condition for these players is that they probably are still
processing verbal-motor behavior in their frontal cortex and
that the skill has not been turned over to a higher brain
function. Initial testing of EEG activity at the David
Leadbetter World Teaching Headquarters using professionals
and amateurs on a portable Peak Achievement Trainer
revealed graphic visual disruptions between accomplished
golfers and those who were developing specific motor
competence. The initial findings revealed that when professional
golfers and experienced instructors followed their pre-shot
initiation or ritual (pre-shot routine) a series of electrical
firings (brainwave output in microvolts versus time in seconds)
were noted on the graph. However, just before initiating the
golf backswing or takeaway, every experienced golfer (n = 6)
of high motor proficiency showed a reduction and low electrical
activity on the EEG monitor (Peak Achievement Trainer). This
reduction of electrical activity or " quiet time" lasted for
only a second, but it was positively identified for every
accomplished golfer, whether using a five iron, using a
driver, or on a 10-foot putting task. The findings were
different for students just receiving lessons and those
players (n = 4) who were having trouble with a specific
component move of their golf swing. The graph revealed that
at the initiation of their swings, significant electrical
activity was evident and that these amateur golfers never
had a "down time" or quiet moment to initiate the swing.
Brainwave output was variable and complex during the pre-swing
phase, initiating the takeaway and the through-swing phase.
These findings may represent a crucial element in discovering
what the motor component of trust may be or how well a learned
skill movement is edified by the performer."

Peak
Achievement Training®
can improve your brain, and teach you to eliminate your
distracting swing thoughts like the pros do.
Like conditioning and strength training
for your body for peak performance, a few workouts with the
Peak Achievement Trainer® (PAT) produce noticeable
improvements in condition and power of your brain. And like a
good coach, the PAT system teaches you how to effectively use
and continually strengthen your brain for peak performance
with golf, whether you trying to improve you putt or improve
your golf swing.
Now you can
actually see and improve what your brain and
body are doing as you strive for peak performance!
The Peak Achievement Trainer®
is a complete
NeuroVideoFeedback™ program that trains
concentration, alertness, and relaxation to achieve peak
performance.
Decades of research on human
brainwaves, how the brain works and how we may enhance its
functionality for peak performance have now produced very
effective capabilities for strengthening brainpower.
The NeuroTek team has studied findings
from NASA and the US military research on how the human brain
works and created an affordable neurofeedback product and
service for a wide variety
of people including athletes, corporate execs, students,
writers, consultants, key employees, children with attention
problems and leaders in all professions.

Peak
Achievement Training®:
-
Concentrate better while you relax more
- Improve your golf
swing by eliminating distractions
- Stay focused
on the game
- Conserve your
mental energy to finish strong
- Play at your
peak performance
This new
proprietary
NeuroVideoFeedback™ technique is far more responsive to
the user's intensity of attention, concentration, or interest
in what he/she is doing than anything else that is available.
The Peak Achievement Trainer®
teaches how to focus more consistently on improving your golf
score and learn new material faster and more thoroughly in
order to reach peak performance.
The new FocusedAlert Protocols
add the ability to measure and train the
degree of alertness/arousal.
They can also be used to measure the degree of interest,
attention, and alertness.
Faster and easier to
learn and use than other neurofeedback training or brainwave
feedback systems
