How To Learn A Skill FASTER | Andrew Huberman

Lost in 30 seconds

i had just a project on neuroplasticity or LTP its just increases the amount of AMPAR receptors at post synapse which in turn increase glutamate concentration in post synapse which strengths the connection of neuron

Wow

stop for how long?

My brain is just silent in this pauses😅🙈

Yes

I watched this video 60 times with a 30 sec gap each time! I'm hoping I've learned the technique 😅

can we check our phone in these gaps?

My parents always encouraged me to take breaks like this, but could never really justify why they're necessary, so I often ignored their advice and worked myself to burn out. It feels nice to listen to Huberman actually explain why it works.

Love the font. What's the name?

This is happened naturally.

Think about all the training sessions in the gym, you take breaks between sets..

If you're working on a heavy bag you take breaks between rounds..

When you play an instrument you paused to adjust your position..or to go get a glass of water..

Math problems, we'll probably feel the need to space out for a moment..

This very interesting piece of information just tells you the effect of something you probably already doing.

This makes sense, it helps you be more present. Also adding visualization before and after practice would help.

I do that naturally & I bet most other people do as well. In my experience anytime I pause to do nothing or let it sink in or whatever you want to call it, teachers or bosses will jump on my case for not paying attention or call me out for not attentively working on what I just learned.
This natural tendency to take a small break after learning something new is trained out of us because we don’t “appear” to be learning they way our superiors “expect” us to.

Savasana!

I love huberman. Dude has such a pleasant voice, and just has you listening like ure glued, he speaks so eloquently and well and every podcast one is just glued to the screen

Bullshit

Wonder if this works for ADHD when you can’t focus and when you stop trying your brain goes into full rumination mode 🤔

Fascinating!!!

So essentially if we just stop and take a fairly deep breath every now and then it will help ground you into the moment.

Idk why, maybe it’s bc it was so loud with my headphones, but that music was so distracting I had to listen to it like 3 times

As manly as Gerard Butler in 300.
