|
Term
| Walking to objects at different distances changes time spent on the task. More difficult movements take more time. |

Term
| Can imagery alone improve motor learning? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term

|
Definition
|
|
Term
| Imagery alone can improve physical performance but if you couple it with __ it will maximize the effects. |

Definition
