What is a Neurogym?
The
Neurogym is a new concept developed by Dr. Morgan and Dr. Calzada that integrates the traditional gym with cognitive components of mental training. When you enter the gym it will look very much like a private gym or cross fit gym with some common weights, battle ropes, stability devices and other sports equipment. However what you will find different is the strong integration of technology available. There are tablets for cognitive training, there is a VR lab, we have sensors to track everything from breath rate to heart rate in order to identify peak performance, and periods of stress. All of these tools take your normal gym experience from intense to elite.
What is performance psychology?
Performance psychology is a branch of psychology that is focused not on disorders but on taking an individual, team, or group from average or good to an elite status. Whether thats a musical group having difficulty with their performances, to an athlete trying to push their performance further to impress scouts, or our clients who are high level executives who are constantly having to be performing in front of boards and clients, performance psychology drives us forward.
What is peak performance or flow?
While these are partially buzz words used by a variety of different books, products, and trainers, the general concept of Flow is a state of high performance with low effort. Imagine those athletes that have break out night, Jordan scoring over 60 points in a night. When asked afterwards “what was it about tonight?” they often have difficulty encapsulating the moment “It just felt right.” That’s flow, a state where your personal performance transcends your average ability. Performers use multiple techniques to try to capture this concept. At Paragon Performance we help you muster the skills and use concrete techniques to address the 9 domains identified as the Flow state. Through mental and physical performance that Flow state can be something that’s not fleeting and evanescent but attainable.
