Jeff Krushell Interviews Thought Technology Ltd. Co-Founder Lawrence Klein on the Company's History in the Field of Peak Performance Training
In an ongoing podcast series called "The Krush Brain Game", Jeff Krushell talks with leading experts and industry insiders about the role of the brain in human performance and the methods and technologies that are being used with professional and elite athletes.
MONTREAL, Quebec, Nov. 19, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Podcaster and performance consultant, Jeff Krushell, interviews Thought Technology, Ltd Co-Founder, Lawrence Klein, in the final podcast of his series "The Krush Brain Game" where he explores the role of the brain body connection in optimal performance training.
Asked about his focus on the brain, Jeff replied, "We know the brain is a huge piece of the performance puzzle and new advances in technology are not only allowing us to map and track brain performance like never before but also allowing us to train the brain – IN REAL TIME and in ways that we have NEVER been able to until recently."
Thought Technology's products have been used by Olympic and professional athletes and other high performers for decades. A key component in peak performance training is learning to keep stress at bay, so that both mind and body can focus a hundred percent on the task at hand. According to Lawrence Klein, "Each individual processes stress differently. A psychophysiological stress assessment looks at multiple modalities such as heart rate, respiration rate, skin conductance, temperature, and muscle tension. When you are able to measure the body's physiological reaction to stress, you can learn to change how it responds and over time can call upon this skill whenever needed."
Included in this ongoing series, are interviews with several influential people from the biofeedback field including: Dr. Erik Peper, psychologist, author and president of the Biofeedback Federation of Europe; Dr. Inna Khazan who combines the use of biofeedback and mindfulness.
