Speeding up our brain signals through practice
Let’s say you practise kicking a football at a goal.
If you kept practising, the brain pathways used for
kicking accurately would become stronger.
The coating (myelin sheath) of the neurons would get thicker.
This would mean the information
passing from one neuron to another
would be faster.
And the faster the information travels,
the easier it will be for you to kick the
ball accurately!
