Techniques to Improve Skill Learning in Music and Physical Activities
1:36:34 - 1:47:59 (11:24)
The use of cerebellar neurophysiology, visualization, and the optimization of repetitions, failures, and idle time can enhance skill learning in music and physical activities. Alpha GPC and low levels of caffeine can also support this process by improving power output, growth hormone release, and fat oxidation.

Summary
Researchers Herholtz and Zatorre have published a detailed review in Neuron about how musical training can impact various aspects of skill learning, especially cadence and metronome training, which can support physical learning as well. There is no shortcut to learning new skills, one has to show dedication, focus, and practice with many repetitions.
