Key Perceptual-Cognitive Demands in Ice Hockey

Ice hockey demands sharp cognitive skills due to its fast pace, physical intensity, and the need for split-second decision-making. Here’s how NeuroTracker training can help players develop these vital abilities.

  1. Peripheral Vision for Tackling Awareness: Hockey players need excellent peripheral vision, especially when passing or shooting, as they’re often vulnerable to hard tackles. Detecting approaching opponents without taking eyes off the puck can help prevent injuries and maintain control.
  2. Rapid Visual Tracking: In a game where players, teammates, and the puck are in constant motion, players must track multiple moving objects. This ability is crucial for maintaining situational awareness and anticipating plays.
  3. Split-Second Decision-Making: Ice hockey requires players to make quick choices—whether to pass, shoot, or adjust positioning—while maintaining awareness of opponents, teammates, and the puck.
  4. Spatial Awareness in Crowded Spaces: Given the confined rink size, players need spatial awareness to maneuver through tight spaces, avoid collisions, and stay in advantageous positions.

How NeuroTracker Training Benefits Ice Hockey Players

NeuroTracker training enhances several specific cognitive skills that meet these demands:

  • Improved Peripheral Awareness and Safety: NeuroTracker strengthens peripheral vision, allowing players to detect threats in their surroundings even when focused on passing or shooting. This heightened awareness can reduce the risk of injury from unexpected tackles.
  • Enhanced Multi-Object Tracking: NeuroTracker’s exercises improve the ability to track multiple players and the puck, helping players stay aware of teammates’ and opponents’ positions, vital for passing and defensive play.
  • Faster Decision-Making and Reaction Time: By training processing speed and rapid decision-making, NeuroTracker helps players choose the best course of action instantly, whether setting up a play, passing, or taking a shot.
  • Greater Spatial Awareness and Positioning: NeuroTracker develops spatial awareness, making it easier for players to anticipate movement in tight spaces, avoid dangerous collisions, and stay positioned advantageously on the ice.

Key Takeaway

With NeuroTracker training, ice hockey players can sharpen peripheral vision, improve awareness, and reduce the risk of tackles while passing or shooting. These cognitive enhancements translate into faster reaction times, safer gameplay, and better decision-making, crucial for excelling in the high-intensity environment of ice hockey.

Performance and Muscle Architecture Comparisons Between Starters and Nonstarters in National Collegiate Athletic Association Division I Women's Soccer

To compare performance and muscle architecture changes in starters and nonstarters during a National Collegiate Athletic Association Division I women's soccer season.

28 females (av. 20 years old) were assessed on NeuroTracker baselines, vertical jump power, repeated line drills and reaction time at preseason, midseason, and postseason. Muscle architecture changes using ultrasonography were assessed at preseason and postseason.

Both starters and non-starters showed similar status or improvements on all assessments across the season, except for line drills performance, which showed greater improvements for starters. NeuroTracker and reaction time performance improved regardless of playtime. Results of muscle architecture analysis indicated that practice training alone provide sufficient stimulus for improving muscle quality during the competitive season. Overall starters did not display significant benefits from competition over athletes who performed training only.

NeuroTracker baseline reveal stroboscopic vision training does not improve perceptual-cognitive skills, but may aid anticipation skills.

Repeated stroboscopic vision training improves anticipation skill without changing perceptual-cognitive skills in soccer players
Applied Neuropsychology

To analyze the repeated effect of stroboscopic vision training on perceptual-cognitive and anticipation skills in soccer players.

28 male soccer players randomized into two groups: Stroboscopic vision training and control groups. The trained group completed 8-weeks of stroboscopic training. Pre post assessments were completed for both groups, which included NeuroTracker baselines and assessments decision-making and anticipation skills.

Both groups improved by similar amounts in NeuroTracker baselines and decision-making. However the trained group showed a larger improvement in anticipation skill than the control group. The findings suggest that stroboscopic vision training does not improve perceptual-cognitive functions or decision-making, but may aid anticipation skills in soccer athletes.

Evaluating the effects of PeakATP® supplementation on visuomotor reaction time and cognitive function following high-intensity sprint exercise
Frontiers in Nutrition

To examine the effects of 14-days ATP supplementation (adenosine 5′-triphosphate) on NeuroTracker visual tracking speed, reaction time, mood and cognition in a double-blind crossover study.

22 adults were randomized to either an active PeakATP® group or a placebo control group and supplemented for 14-days. They then tested on 3 minutes of maximum intensity cycling. Pre, immediately post, and 60-minutes post, all participants completed a NeuroTracker baseline, a visuomotor reaction test (Dynavision D2), a Profile of Mood States Questionnaire and a cognition assessment (ANAM). After another 14 days of no supplementation, the active and control groups were then reversed and the whole procedure was repeated.

NeuroTracker results improved on the second testing procedure, however average differences between active and control groups were negligible. No significant interactions were found on the other assessments, apart from reaction time performance, which improved meaningfully with post ATP supplementation. The results suggest ATP may help decrease fatigue related effects from intense bouts of exercise, but not higher-level cognitive functions.
