Using lucid dreams for sport

[djf]

Hi everyone. I was wondering whether you could use lucid dreaming to actually practise certain movements for boxing and other sports so that when I actually practise at my club the movements seem like second nature because I will have practised them in my subconcious. Cheers.

For sure you can. In all likely hood, that is the very purpose of dreams. Dreams are just a reflection of what you are focused on, so if you can hold that focus on any one subject, you will dream about it. Additionally, you will learn from those experiences as much as you would in real life, maybe more so.

I'ts been proven that when you do something in a dream, while there is no phisical movment, the brain activity is almost identical to when you are doing that thing in waking life. So, yes, I would think so.

Yeah, hopefully but do you think it will only take one practise session in a dream to subconciously learn a move (I already know and practise the moves, i only want to make them second nature) for real life? I don't really know much about this because I'm new to it all but ever since i learnt about it I've started remembering a dream every night so hopefully it won't take too long to become lucid . I couldn't belive it the other night though, I was dreaming about swimming down a river when one of those lists came up which happen when you right-click on your mouse which I used to reverse the dream. I think I was slightly lucid at this point but I mean, is there a more obvious dream sign than that

It's been said that when you sleep, your body practices all the things you've done that day. I bet that if you'd lucid dream while this is happening, it would really help.

Visualization is often used as a sort of traning, as Supernova said. The brain acts the same as if it were real.

if you're doing gym in a dream for example, you'll going to have a physical result in the reality?
