What You Can Learn From F1 Drivers About Age-Proofing Your Brain | Dr Tommy Wood

Dr Tommy Wood is a neuroscientist, a performance coach and – his words – an elite professional nerd. He’s also Hintsa’s head scientist for motorsport. Formula 1 drivers operate at the peak of physical and cognitive performance. Tommy describes the key lessons we can take from how F1 drivers train to push our own limits, and why it could hold the secret to holding off cognitive decline as we get older.

Tommy hosts his own podcast ‘Better Brain Fitness’ with Dr Josh Turknett.

You can also watch episodes on YouTube. 

We love performance, which is why we’ve also launched ainslie + ainslie – the first supplement brand to be developed inside an elite sports team. Now available for everyone. Find out more at http://www.ainslieainslie.com
