24.01.2022 FREE WORKSHOP Tuesday 4th Feb 12-1pm. How to harness flow and experience less low in your life. If you want to upgrade your productivity, creativity, resilience and beat your inner critic, this is the workshop for you. Booking via the link below.

23.01.2022 Late night Tetris personal bests.. hard work pays off. Give the Brain enough repetitions, attempts, failures and it starts recognising patterns. Knowing what to do in which situation takes time, days, months, years and YES quality sleep and autonomic nervous system health to accelerate, consolidate and integrate all that practice and pattern recognition training. 318,000 is my new PB.. previously 286K... always learning, always growing.. but damn gotta put in the time, effort, focus and train at threshold. Any lesser challenge wouldn’t yield neural adaptation.

23.01.2022 Just like gyms have spawned across the globe.. filling the need of our sedentary lifestyles due to modernisation of our workforce... The Brain Room Vision looks like a world where Brain Rooms are as commonplace as gyms, fitness centres, and yoga studios. BRAIN BUILDING... I (Rob Gronbeck) grew up influenced by the body building community, particularly Arnold Schwarzenegger and learned that IT IS POSSIBLE TO SHAPE YOUR BODY WITH EFFORT, TRAINING, & SKILLFUL PROGRAMMING. The sa...me goes for our brains... and if the past 6 years working with hundreds of athletes, professionals, students and people with injured or deteriorating brains, is I HAVEN'T MET A BRAIN THAT DOESN'T RESPOND TO TRAINING and IMPROVE. Whether it's training concentration and visual processing with NeuroTracker, hand/foot-eye coordination and balance with Fitlight Training, combining music, movement & VR with Beat Saber, or heart, skin and brain wave devices to provide REAL TIME FEEDBACK to help us to train those rythmns, the time is now. If you're a psychologist, sports coach, owner of a business, CEO, high performance director or experienced in marketing, operations, sales, facility management, property, partnerships, taxation, finance, legal, intellectual property, scaling, get in touch. THAT IS IF YOU SHARE THIS VISION... of BRAIN TRAINING & BRAIN BUILDING BECOMING THE NORM... for all our sakes. See more

22.01.2022 "A new study has some good news: even light exercise may help protect children against developing depression."

22.01.2022 Mental health is critical at the best of times... and yet this COVID-19 scenario has brought many of our best to their knees. Recently I was asked to comment for The Cairns Post. Here's a really well researched and written article with some valuable tips to stay resilient, bounce back, and even grow during the worst of times.

21.01.2022 Basic everyday survival strategies to get your brain and heart in sync.

21.01.2022 Be like water my friend - Bruce Lee Even better, sit and breath and merge with the waterfall.. maintaining coherence, stillness and presence while torrential forces crash and smash you around.. keeping your centre.. your breath.. your balance.. your poise.. training for that moment when you’ll need it.. whenever that is.. you won’t be expecting it so put in the hard yards now to ensure you’re capable to switching on no matter what.

21.01.2022 What are those 1 percenters that matter in elite sports? This interview with long-time colleage & mentor Stephen P. Bird, who has recently co-authored and will soon publish his new book, "@When Winning Matters " with NBL powerhouse coach Rob Beveridge. Over the years I've benefited tremendously from Birdy's wisdom on recovery, elite coaching, and high performance training so here, I present, Dr Stephen Bird, recovery guru to the world's best athletes, on the ONE PERCENTERS THAT MATTER.

21.01.2022 Its so good to be back in our new and improved premises. During the break we had time to think how we could make the brain room better and so far so good Even nicer to look at with the new colours. Stoked to welcome back long time client Marcella as she completed her five months of return to work brain rehabilitation. Super proud of you mate! aaannnnddd the GRATITUDE WINDOW IS BACK!!

21.01.2022 True or False? 40% of all nerve fibers connected to the brain are linked to the retina. True. 50% of our neural tissue is directly or indirectly related to vision, which assists in visual learning.... True or False? More of our neurons are dedicated to vision than the other four senses combined. TRUE. This is why it's so important to train peripheral vision. We've been doing this successfully since 2014, facilitated 7000+ sessions of NeuroTracker and helped athletes become Australian Champions, make Australian Rep sides, double their points per game, make better passing options and more saves!! New programs starting shortly.

20.01.2022 Sleep is paramount for recovery and optimal performance. I’ve been loving flare ear plugs to go deeper into restorative sleep. My WHOOP band and app has calculated the ear plugs effect. When you find something that work.. keep doing it.. and when nothing is working.. change something up. Mouth taping. Titanium ear plugs. Eye mask.... Cool room. Recover better.... perform greater.

20.01.2022 A walk through and explainer of two of our Brain Training Exercises for keeping your brain fit, fast and free!

19.01.2022 You wouldn't expect talking to your personal trainer will improve your fitness, so why would talking to a psychologist improve your brain fitness? The brain has regions like the body has muscles. The key areas for athletes are the visual cortex and the frontal lobes (for attention, focus and decision making). At The Brain Room we TRAIN those regions... we don't just talk about them. Sports performance BRAIN TRAINING without the psych0-babble. PM us if you've tried to talk your brain into being better.

19.01.2022 Met the wise, rad and super empathic Crystallin Dillon at the Flow Genome Project training in California this February, and she's a switched on professional of the highest calibre. Check out this book as perhaps, as she's observed, since we're going to be in lockdown/isolation, might as well be intentional and learn to rest and "do" recovery better... for the onslaught we'll face when we return.

19.01.2022 Can technology help us rebuild our broken brains? YES, resoundingly. https://www.ucsf.edu/magazine/mend-broken-minds

19.01.2022 Music moves the body, bones, blood and brain!! Beats... heart beats.. drum beats... get as many as you can to amp yourself up.. or soothe yourself down... a balm for the frazzled mind.. and on ramp for frothy adventures and escapades. What’s your jam?

15.01.2022 We are sooooo excited to be opening our doors again Monday morning #yourfitnesscairns #cairnsbestgym thanks to Coach Vinny Concise X Training

14.01.2022 GET YOUR HEAD IN THE GAME The little saying above is quite literal for lifters right now. With restrictions slowly being eased, gyms will be able to open... in some capacity in a month, which is exciting news for us all. NOW is the perfect time to really get your head in the game! Being mentally prepared to lift again will be the key to getting back to your best, faster! Over the years we have learnt that the mental side of lifting can be just as important as physical practice. So I wanted to find out if it could be possible to use visualisation to maintain neuro pathways and even sharpen technical skills, when we have no access to a gym. As well as get some tips on how we can best mentally prepare ourselves to get back to training when our performance may not be where it was a few months ago. To gain a better understanding and get the answers to some of our questions, I invited our good friend Rob Gronbeck - Brain & Performance Coach from The Brain Room Vision, to give us the science behind visualisation and mental performance. Check out the clip below where we chatted about all things mental and how mental performance can help you get back to your best, sooner. To hear the enitre chat, click soundcloud link below for the full audio version. This was our first crack at podcasting, and the visual unfortunately cut out just after 23min. As podcast virgins, we would appreciate any constructive feedback. https://m.soundcloud.com//get-your-head-in-the-game-rob-gr And for more information on anything discussed in this podcast, be sure to get in touch with Rob and give his page The Brain Room Vision a like.

13.01.2022 "New research published in Mayo Clinic Proceedings finds that cardiorespiratory exercise such as fast walking, running, biking or any activity that elevates heart rate, is linked to an increase in gray matter volume in the brain."

12.01.2022 Gold Coast here we come!! A weekend of experiences planned.. indoor skydiving.. surfing lessons, two live music gigs, and who knows what else.. hopefully some beach volleyball to boot!!

Be well and take care of yourself and each other.

11.01.2022 When we watch someone else in pain, our brains run a simulation of what that pain feels like. This ability to imagine another's pain is the basis of how we relate to each other... and explains why stories can be so powerful. #BrainPBS

11.01.2022 Todays the day!! 12-1pm. More Flow, Less Low workshop. Sharing my model of flow for performance. See you there!!

11.01.2022 Are you missing the intense focus you normally get from your sport? Good news!! We've got something for that! P.S. The brain slows down when not in use... and with this COVID lockdown our brains, like our muscles do, will have wilted. This is how NeuroTracker you get your brain back up to speed. PM us for program details.

10.01.2022 Sleep hygiene. Flare titanium ear plugs. Surgical tape across the lips to encourage nasal breathing during sleep. Mindfold blocks out all light. And of course Bertie the Californian Bear. Sleep is King in performance, mental & emotional health, wellness and recovery. What are you using to enhance sleep, recovery and growth?

07.01.2022 What can athletes do while injured or in COVID lockdown to maintain their sharpness, maintain momentum and avoid "brain drain?"

06.01.2022 The brains of London taxi drivers were tracked before, during, and after their training -- and a part of their brain had visibly grown. In this clip from The Br...ain, I discuss the ways in which the adult brain isnt fixed: its networks constantly reconfigure themselves according to our experiences, our aspirations, and our environment. #BrainPBS See more

04.01.2022 Play hard.. then feast!! Pleasure circuits in the brain need priming.. and once more novelty is the super charger. Here at @commune_bondi we were floored by the eggs Florentine.. world class and spiced up our trip of adventurous activities. So seek novelty always.. and your brain will repay you with delight, surprise and sometimes the golden ticket... awe.

03.01.2022 Morning breath work is so much frothier with another frother.. @bennywallington and I recorded a live, unscripted breath gym session to rival Aerobic Oz Style!!

Watch out for our #BeepBreath 10 day challenge for #Breathcember Breathe better, feel better, think better, be better, perform better.
