Science Behind It
EMG studies show that imagery activates muscles! And having a regular Mental Practice can facilitate skill acquisition, helps perfect movement and should be used in a relaxed state when the subconscious is more active.
A study conducted by Dr.Blaslotto at the University of Chicago split basketball players into three groups to test the hypothesis that positive visualization led to success. These three groups were focused on trying to improve their ability for foul shots. Each of the three groups were tested on their ability to make foul shots before the experiment began.
1st group practiced foul shooting for an hour a day.
2nd group just visualized themselves making free throws.
3rd group was the control group and did nothing.
After 30 days, he tested them again.
The first group improved by 24%. The second group improved by 23% without touching a basketball! Statistically, this is a tie. The third group did not improve which was expected. Visualization is used by elite athletes to reduce stress, focus and increase muscle memory.
