amazing explanation 👏 thanks Dr laby. I hope you cover olympic shotgun shooting one time and explain how professional shooters use quite eye to hit targets. thanks Dr. your videos are great 👍
I would assume that the idea behind the quiet eye is that the person is focused on the task at hand as much as possible. Let's say, I stare at the same point during a motion. However, halfway through the motion my attention shifts to sensations in for example my legs or arms (which would break the concentration, but not break the quiet eye I think). Is it true that in this case the quiet eye does not improve the motion? In other words, does the improvement of a motion come from the quiet eye or from the increase in focus triggered by the quiet eye. From personal experience, it seems to be the latter one, but I'm interested to know what others think.
Easiest to think about what happens when you are finely cutting a cucumber. With concentration and effort, you are able to cut very fine slices, one after another fairly quickly. If, all of a sudden, the doorbell rings, or the phone rings, your concentration and attention shifts for a moment to the sound and you find that you cut your finger - this happens often and is a good example of the quiet eye. The quiet eye is a combo of mental concentration and physical movement directed by that concentration. If your are not 100% "focused" both mentally and physically on the task, the chance for success is reduced!
Let's say it's better than nothing, but to learn the quiet eye all you need is to say a phrase too get you in the proper mindset- like 'nothing but net' in basketball, then another phrase as you concentrate on a specific spot on the rim such as 'sight, focus' - no special equipment is needed just your eyes and your head to keep them on the right spot!
Yes, depending on the sport peripheral vision is certainly a critical component to sports success - not just the vision peripherally but the ability to react to what is seen in the periphery!
How does an object passing through the focus point effect this? For example would it be optimal to shoot a free throw where the ball never blocks your vision during the shooting motion?
Ideally, we wouldn't want anything to block the line of sight to the target, although that is not always possible. It's not as much what you are seeing but what your eyes are doing that will have the greatest effect. If they are not moving, then success. If they are moving and looking at different targets, then concentration and "brain energy" is not 100% on the task at hand, and there will be less success!
In soccer, when making a shot, it is important to keep your eyes on your target before, during, and immediately after you make contact with the ball - the ball will go where you are looking
You should be looking at the empty space inside the rim and imagining the ball there. Looking directly at any point on the rim makes movement shooting harder.
The key here is to look at a single target the entire time - not sure it matters much if its the front, middle or back of the rim as the bal trajectory will be adjusted with practice - what wont be adjusted is random eye movements all over!
I needed this! I have been trying to understand this and trying my best to train myself. Thank you for this!
Thanks, it’s a technique that can pretty much help everyone in any sport!
Read your bible! (KJV, preferably) ♥
amazing explanation 👏 thanks Dr laby.
I hope you cover olympic shotgun shooting one time and explain how professional shooters use quite eye to hit targets.
thanks Dr. your videos are great 👍
I'll make a video on Olympic shotgun shooting in the future! Glad you enjoy the videos, thanks for watching!
Thank you for this! So informative. I love watching these videos and learning so much!
Thanks for watching!

Yess I’ll do the same with sailing
@@jeffreyzucker.6819 can you please tell me what you focus on for swimming . I would also like to apply it in my working
not sure in swimming, but when turning I would pick a spot on the wall
Any video on olympic trap shooter’s eyes during shooting their shotguns
I still dont know if I have to look at the ball or the net when shooting in soccer

Hi Dr. Laby. Is Swivel Vision a good tool to use while training quiet eye?
Let's say it's better than nothing, but to learn the quiet eye all you need is to say a phrase too get you in the proper mindset- like 'nothing but net' in basketball, then another phrase as you concentrate on a specific spot on the rim such as 'sight, focus' - no special equipment is needed just your eyes and your head to keep them on the right spot!

keyword: eyeball always in center, be aware of yr peripheral.

So how would someone use this idea and implement it into dribbling and shooting training in soccer?
In soccer, when making a shot, it is important to keep your eyes on your target before, during, and immediately after you make contact with the ball - the ball will go where you are looking
You should be looking at the hooks at the back of the rim not the front.
You should be looking at the empty space inside the rim and imagining the ball there. Looking directly at any point on the rim makes movement shooting harder.
The key here is to look at a single target the entire time - not sure it matters much if its the front, middle or back of the rim as the bal trajectory will be adjusted with practice - what wont be adjusted is random eye movements all over!
Dr Laby can you refer someone in the Cincinnati area for an evaluation or is there remote services that you offer ?
Don't know anyone in the Cincinnati area who is an expert in this area - send me a note via my webs site and we can explore options ...

Odd to recommend fiction on a science chanel, but I agree the Bible has some good stories worth reading.
Nah, I’d read version easier to understand
