Many people who play sports want to be competitive or
play their best. This is one reason why athletic equipment manufacturing
is a booming industry. People will try to enhance their performance
by utilizing expensive or special equipment, shoes, clothes, etc.
to make them the best they can be at their sport.
Some of these things may help, but a true athlete relies
more on their own athletic ability and by strengthening it. Many perform
extensive workouts and aerobic training, as well as a proper diet.
They are treating the "body" first for optimal athletic
results. When you think of any sport, hand and eye coordination is
one of the most important of all skills needed to be athletic.
With sports vision, you can enhance these motor skills.
There is recent popularity of training athletes in sports vision because
it is proven to improve a person's athletic ability.
The eye leads the body. In other words, the visual system
directs your motor skills. For example, a baseball pitcher tries to
fool the batter's eyes, not his hands. The visual system can be trained
to detect these body movements. A magician, for example, plays "tricks"
on the eyes by performing illusions. We think we see something, but
in reality we have only missed a body movement.
