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.

                                                                       the easier it will be for you to kick the


                                                                       ball accurately!
