⚾ THE WORLD SERIES IS COMING… LET’S TALK BASEBALL & THE BRAIN! 🧠
When a pitcher throws a 100 mph fastball, the batter has only about 0.4 seconds to react before the ball reaches home plate. So, what is the brain doing in that split second?
🧠 Visual Processing: The brain and eyes process visual information in approximately 0.075–0.1 seconds.
⚾ Pitch Recognition: The batter must interpret the pitch and decide how to respond in roughly 0.10–0.15 seconds.
💥 Swing Time: The batter then has about 0.15 seconds to execute the swing.
That’s a LOT of neurological processing in the blink of an eye! Talk about a small margin for error.
From professional athletes stepping up to the plate to everyday activities that require balance, coordination, focus, and reaction time, your brain plays a role in everything you do.
At NeuroLIFE Institute, we believe understanding how your nervous system functions is an important step toward supporting brain health and performance. Our neurological exams and individualized care plans are designed to address each person's unique needs.
