Neurons that Fire Together Wire Together – Hebbian Theory¹

“Neuroplasticity, the brain’s ability to re-wire itself in response to sensory experiences, is now accepted Science”².

Research confirms that exercise is good for the brain because it releases essential hormones (BDNF) to stimulate growth of healthy neurons.

SMARTfit programming goes further, embracing Hebbian Theory with technology and programming designed to simultaneously engage cognitive problem solving while requiring users to engage their whole body to deliver answers by triggering intelligent targets to earn game scores.

SMARTfit’s Apple/Android driven interface provides the tools to tailor activities to any ability level while supplying the data to measure and track progress. Players are motivated to keep returning to improve and track their progress.

“SMARTfit merges exercise and performance like nothing else on the market. I hear ‘mind/body’ all the time in the fitness world, but it wasn’t until I saw this technology in action that I realized what mind/body could be for athletes and others of all ages and abilities.

SMARTfit is the real mind/body training tool and I am thrilled to take an active role in programming for this cutting-edge company.”

SMARTfit – Validated by Neuroscience

“Thanks so much for sharing this amazingly interesting technology with me.  I am a bioengineer-neurosurgeon who directs the USC Neurorestoration Center.  The primary goal of our Center is to develop transformative technologies to restore function to the nervous system.

Human nervous system functions invariably involve a combination of cognitive and motor components.  I am extremely intrigued and optimistic that SMARTfit will prove to be an exceptionally effective and important tool that combines cognitive and motor training in unique and endless combinations to address a multitude of indications within the athletic and medical realms.

I look forward to working closely with you to quantify and document these benefits, optimally integrating them within neurorestoration/athletic training continuum.”

SMARTfit – Validated by Kinesiology and Biomechanics

“SMARTfit takes the focus of the player off the mechanics and moves it to the external, forcing the brain to solve two problems at the same time.”

“It solves the big missing part in rehab because we want carry-over onto the field. SMARTfit is a great tool to test if that is happening. Further studies will help us to measure its full effectiveness.”

SMARTfit – Evaluated by Researchers as a High Potential Product

“When I started looking for a novel way to engage older patients in simultaneous physical activity and cognitive stimulation I looked for about 2 years before I came across your company.  You are leaps and bounds ahead of everyone else in the technology itself but also in fostering a genuine passion in everyone who comes in contact with the SmartFit boards.  They are fun and engaging and have potential in so many different arenas. ”

SMARTfit – Validated by Elite Athletes

“When I saw SMARTfit I knew right away that I was looking at the future. It offered everything in one system. As a pro athlete I learned that traditional training methods were tapping only half of our performance faculties and saw cognitive training as a way to increase mental speed on the field.”

“I see SMARTfit as a way for elite athletes to break through performance plateaus and develop the vital underlying reaction and motor skills for sports. More importantly, it helps to develop efficient on-the-spot mental processing which is great for sports as well as all high-pressure professions such as business, military and policing. This platform is limitless.”

-Lawrence Jackson, Former NFL Defensive End

“After my first session on SMARTfit I knew something had changed and that was proven that weekend when I made every free throw. Over the next four games, I made 12 for 12 free throws and my free throw average shot up from 50% to 70%.

My perception of the game seemed to slow down and my timing, reaction skills and balance improved dramatically.  Since then, my games have improved tremendously thanks to SMARTfit.”

“I look forward to reporting back in four months on how SMARTfit training has actually produced sustained results.  See you in December.”

-Augustine Okosun, Center, International Player, NBA Developmental League
