What Is The Rhythm Of The Game?
By Rodger Bailey of The Rhythm Of The Game
Have You Heard About The Rhythm Of The Game? We often hear sportscasters talk about a player or a team with respect to the rhythm of the game. Sometimes they say a player has "lost the rhythm of the game," or is "in the rhythm of the game." Sometimes they tell us the rhythm or the momentum has shifted from one team to another. Sometimes they tell us that a player is out-of-sync with his team. And, sometimes they tell us that the defensive players are out-of-sync with the offensive moves of the other team. What Is The Rhythm Of The Game? We know from watching all kinds of sports that there is exists some kind of rhythm (an "ebb and flow") in sports events. The rhythm of a game involves how the game is flowing and the speed with which events occur. The rhythm of the game involves the flow of that give-and-take in the movement between offensive and defensive actions, as well as the in the kinds of flow that spectators experience between their periods of elation, hope, and expectation and their times of fear and disappointment. The Rhythm Of Top Performing Athletes Top performing athletes are those who are able to stay in-sync with their own teammates and stay out-of-sync with the opposing team's players. They maintain superior levels of performance, because their own team members know what to expect and know what to do to support them. And, the opposing team's players are not able to get synchronized with them, so they cannot predict their moves. Top performing team members stay in sync with each other and the opposing teams are not able to predict what will happen. The Rhythm Of Poor Performing Athletes Poor performing athletes are those whose moves are predictable by the opposing team's players who know where to be and know what to do to interfere with that player's movements. Poor performing teams are predictable and opposing teams know what to do to stop them. Training Rhythm Of the Game Recent breakthroughs in athletic training approaches have included the ability to train rhythm and timing for individual athletes and for teams. Timing and rhythm training is specialized and although many sports coaches might know some aspects of timing training, they will not be able to bring an athlete up to the highest levels of precision in timing and rhythm. In the past, many sports teams tried using dance coaches to help team members improve their individual timing and rhythm and to help team members synchronize with each other. More advanced approaches are now available which provide much more precision in the individual and the team achievements in timing and rhythm. New Directions & New Technologies in Rhythm Training The new directions in rhythm and timing use objective measurements to verify the improvements for each athlete and focuses the individual training regimen to achieve the highest levels for all members of the team. These new directions also use techniques which are designed to maximize team synchronization. These approaches provide the highest level of performance for all players and for the team as a whole.
Rodger Bailey, MS has been working with timing and rhythm for many years and has worked with hundreds of professional and amateur athletes. He specializes in smoothing out timing and rhythm anomalies which effect performance in any sport. His work improves consistency in timing, rhythm, perception, coordination, accuracy, speed, stamina, focus, concentration, attention, and teamwork. Rodger uses objective measures to track individual and team progress.

Recently I underwent the surgeons knife and had both knees replaced. In order to help me relearn how to balance and retrieve my physical rhythm and although I'm barely a singer, I joined a choir. This self applied remedy assisted me well beyond my expectations, since it improved my breathing remarkably. Correct breathing in this orchestrated way impacted my ability to regain my natural rhythm and thus physical co-ordination to boot.
CONTRIBUTOR'S REPLY
Now we have found that rhythm therapies added to physical therapy can dramatically reduce recuperation from surgery and brain injury over physical therapy alone. Balance is one of those things that rhythm therapy improves. Congrats for figuring this out for yourself. Rodger
When I had my first major surgery over forty years ago the rhythm of life in a ward was almost a microcosm of life outside. We didn't have births but we did see the constant influx of patients being modified by death and recovery.
All of life runs in cycles, the rhythm of breathing being the most basic survival tool and birth and death being the opposite ends of a rhythm that does not repeat within the individual but repeats within the tribe.
This article brings 'going with the flow' to a more precise meaning.
I just came across some material on balancing brainwaves to equalize each brainlobe. The rhythm thing you are doing sounds wonderful. Keep up the good work.
Fascinating. Hehehe, shows one of many ways in which I flunked gym. I was never in rhythm with anyone. Nor in choir, which I also flunked and loathed. My sense of timing is off and my speed of doing things isn't standard, I react quickly in mind but my body's slow. Of course if gym really had graded on effort I'd have gotten straight A's in it, but they didn't. They graded on success at the activity and only the top athletes got good grades.
