Understanding Upper Motor Neurons in Skill Learning
14:59 - 25:35 (10:36)
This episode discusses the importance of upper motor neurons in skill learning and how they can be leveraged through visualization. It also explains the difference between open loop and closed loop movements.
Clips
The two types of skills are open loop and closed loop.
14:59 - 17:57 (02:58)
Summary
The two types of skills are open loop and closed loop. Open loop skills are those that don't change in the course of the action and closed loop skills rely on feedback to change and adapt.

Summary
Proprioception is described as the sixth sense of knowing where your limbs are in relation to the body--it is a deeper subconscious level of awareness. It's vitally important as it helps you understand how to move and how heavily to step, and we place more focus on it when we learn something new.

Understanding the difference between upper and lower motor neurons is essential to accelerate skill learning through visualization techniques.
20:07 - 25:35 (05:28)
Summary
Understanding the difference between upper and lower motor neurons is essential to accelerate skill learning through visualization techniques. Upper motor neurons send signals to central pattern generators and lower motor neurons to execute movements.
