Sports during the break distracts you and you can start the game again. Sports will not help the game, and only the teaching and practice of the game will help)))

Exercise definitely helps, it helps in all aspects of life. Helps ease the anxiety of playing higher stakes poker and keeps your mind in tip top condition for making the correct decisions and not getting ahead of yourself.

Eating healthy can have a similar impact on your brain, you gotta treat your body right.

Physical exercise will definitely improve your poker game. Regular physical training improves memory and accelerates the performance of mental operations. In addition, exercise reduces stress, which is very important for the brain.

I can say exactly, that without physical exercises my focus on the game is very weak and my attention is often absent-minded. Therefore I advise you to do sport. It helps you to improve your game and your life in general!

Please note that all the famous poker players are involved in sports!
I always try to do some exercises before the game, they betray me more calm and confidence, and + good music)))

The best physical exercise is playing musical instruments.If you can see the moving pulses everywhere,then music is everything!Resonance and harmony are important factors for all the conditions in life

Undoubtedly, the change of activity of the mental to the physical and vice versa keeps our brain and body in tone.

Exercise keeps the cardiovascular system fit. This is important to poker players for a few reasons.

If you're not fit, then your breathing and heartbeat and and colour are more likely to be a tell. Someone at a table who is under stress, ie trying to bluff or to slow play the nuts, is more likely to show physical signs of that stress if they aren't fit.

And being fit allows for greater oxygenation of the blood which helps your brain function at its peak.

 

[bartleby]

god...reading through this I realize I need to exercise more and I need to play more....where should I get the motivation from^^

 

[cheeeer]

Someone at a table who is under stress, ie trying to bluff or to slow play the nuts, is more likely to show physical signs of that stress if they aren't fit.

Ye but how will it help you to realize if he/she is trying to bluff or to slow play the nuts?

Undoubtedly, playing sports are the foundation of good health in the long run and are one of the main tools in the fight against tilt.
Proper nutrition and regular exercise will necessarily bear fruit and significantly improve your level of play: you will be able to think clearly and often make the right decisions.

 

[Navin Sarabjeet]

I am not sure if I am alone on this. But I feel I play much better Poker when I am exercising regularly. I play a lot more live than online. Anyone else find this happens for them as well?

This happens also for me

And doing some yoga exercises early in the morning can also help a lot
Try it for a while and tell me if you see any difference

 

[Glebtyzhnyh90]

Just because training helps to release adrenaline, and remove negative emotions, I personally with a negative mood can only lose everything, there must be common sense, and pure thoughts, patience is one of the most important foundations of poker

Exercise will help you concentrate and calculate more effectively. It has the added benefit that when you play live, you won't get fatigued, sitting in long sessions,
