GENERATING SOME FAT DEPOSITS FOR WINTER.......
This is a strange title isn’t it?
I’ll tell you what is this all about. Did you know that a well “trained” brain can consume almost 50% of the entire calories intake? Can you imagine, you intake 2000 calories, and then sit down in front of a chess game and play until you lose 1000 calories! With no sport, just “mental sport” :) ok let me explain:
One of the greatest masters of memory – Gary Kasparov, chess Champion, use to workout mentally and fiscally every day. It is understandable, if you realize that professional chess demands a huge emotive control, it produces big tensions. To give you an example, in the last chess contest, Gary Kasparov played against Kerpov, which lasted for many months. Kerpov loosed 15 kilos, and at the end he lost the champion, and presented very bad psychophysics conditions. On the other hand, we have the champion Gary Kasparov, that workout every day with a personal trainer, with aerobic exercises has running, to maintain the brain well irrigated. The preparation for this kind of champions is similar to an athlete, including diet! Great amounts of pasta and carbs, to give the brain all the resources he can need. Making a PET scanning to several professional chess players, scientists have realized that, in moments of huge brain demands, it can use almost 50% of all body energy.
Pretty impressive hum?....
