Focus on Goals for VRT

Visualization is a primary function to attain everything that our hearts' do desire. The visualization aspects of VRT will help you make good choices for your future.

All things are a choice. Choose what it is you want or will become.

Once you have chosen your goals, and you have come to a degree of prioritization as to what is the most important, what is of secondary importance and even tertiary importance, the aspect of visualizing and believing comes into play and is very necessary to speed up attainment of the goal.

Focus on the goal and desire it. It is what you want. Keep your mind free of thoughts of things that you do not want. Make that goal real; see it, feel it, even hear it. Create an imaginary situation in which you attain it, using as many of your senses as you can; make that vision as real as possible. Go into a gentle state of meditation, and say to yourself, "this is what I want." Let it slowly subside into your subconscious; in other words, come out of your meditation and forget about it.

The "mind over matter" situation will take over your life and make for you the goals that you engender. All you have to do is believe. And let it take place on its own terms.

VRT and Neuromuscular Coordination

Various studies have been done on the VRT technique by Russian exercise physiologists in the mid-nineteen eighties. They dubbed this ancient system of exercise "pumping imaginary iron", or more specifically, "mock weightlifting."

A variety of tests were done on factors done on conduction velocity, and their summation was that this system of exercise "increases neuromuscular coordination and speed of movement" as evidenced by an increase of contractions in the sarcomere (muscle cells). Evidently the myoneural junction (junction between nerve and muscle) has a tendency to secrete the neurotransmitter acetylcholine across the synaptic gap at a much greater velocity. Coordination would be directly related to faster movement of the muscles.

Students of the VRT System can find themselves at an advantage in athletic situations regarding speed and coordination; everything from tennis, badminton, track and basketball to running and wrestling.
