Reaction Training by Ava Thompson

Reaction Training explores a crucial yet often overlooked aspect of sports performance: reaction time. It argues that enhancing reaction time is a trainable skill that can provide athletes with a significant competitive advantage. The book bridges the gap between neuroscience and practical application, explaining the complex neural pathways involved in processing stimuli and executing responses, while also providing detailed drills to improve visual, auditory, and kinesthetic responses.

Did you know that understanding the neuroscience of reaction time can allow for more targeted training?
Or that reaction time training can lead to improvements in anticipation, decision-making, and precision?

This comprehensive guide takes a progressive approach, beginning with foundational knowledge and culminating in the integration of reaction-training drills into personalized training programs. Each drill comes with detailed instructions and modifications for different skill levels. By emphasizing individualized programs, the book teaches readers how to assess their strengths and tailor their training, making it a valuable resource for athletes and coaches seeking to optimize athletic performance through improved reflexes and agility.
