Concurrent Brain Endurance Training Enhances Endurance Exercise Performance
Participants engaged in BET not only improved their physical endurance by a remarkable 32% but also experienced significant physiological changes, including increased pre-frontal oxygenation. This contrasts with the control group's 12% improvement, highlighting BET's effectiveness in augmenting physical capacity through cognitive stress.
Performance Improvements:
BET: +32%
Control Group: +12%
A Randomized Controlled Trial of Brain Endurance Training to Reduce Endurance Exercise Fatigue
This study demonstrated that combining BET with cycling drastically improved time to exhaustion, with the BET group showcasing a 126% improvement compared to the control group's 42%. This illustrates BET's capacity to enhance endurance performance significantly beyond traditional training methods.
Performance Improvements:
BET: +126%
Control Group: +42%
Brain Endurance Training Improves Physical, Cognitive, and Multitasking Performance in Professional Football Players
In professional football, BET not only elevated physical performance but also cognitive and multitasking abilities. The BET group outperformed the control in agility, repeated sprint ability, attention, and cognitive performance, marking a wide-ranging enhancement of athletic capabilities.
Performance Improvements:
Repeated Sprint Ability: BET +10% vs. Control +3%
Agility: BET +8.9% vs. Control +4.3%
Attention: BET +42% vs. Control No Change
Error Rate: BET -69% vs. Control -21%
Cognitive Performance: BET +11% vs. Control +4%
Prior Brain Endurance Training Boosts Endurance Exercise Performance
By introducing cognitive fatigue before physical training, participants saw a 24% improvement in endurance, indicating the unique advantage of cognitive stress in enhancing physical performance. The improvement in prefrontal oxygenation further emphasizes BET's role in optimizing endurance through cognitive pathways.
Performance Improvements:
BET: +24%
Control Group: +12%
