Flex Friday
Coach Alex covers a "muscle memory" question from Better Daily Premium.
AI Generated Podcast Caption (Why is the term muscle memory erroneous?)
The term "muscle memory" is often used to refer to the ability of the body to remember and repeat physical movements that have been learned through repetition and practice. However, this term is somewhat misleading and is not an accurate scientific description of the underlying physiological processes that are involved.
Muscles do not have the capacity to store memories in the same way that the brain does. Instead, the ability to repeat learned physical movements is the result of changes in the nervous system, particularly in the connections between neurons (nerve cells) in the brain and spinal cord. When we practice a physical movement, the connections between neurons in the central nervous system become stronger, and this allows us to perform the movement more efficiently and accurately. This process is known as neural plasticity.
While the term "muscle memory" is commonly used to describe this phenomenon, it is not a scientifically accurate term. It is more accurate to say that the body's ability to repeat physical movements is the result of changes in the nervous system rather than the muscles themselves.
