The key neurotransmitters affect personality and give rise to 5 different neurotypes, all of which have their own characteristics, driving motivation and strategies for interacting with others and managing stress. Understanding the 5 different neurotypes is key to developing optimal individualized training.
There are three main components that are involved in how we should train:
DOPAMINE dominant profile = NEUROLOGICAL component
ADRENALINE dominant profile = MUSCULAR component
SEROTONIN dominant profile = STRUCTURAL component
An individual with a high level of a component will be stimulated by and perform better in tasks where that component is emphasized. For example, someone with a high neurological dominance will do better and find more motivation with lifting heavy, being explosive, or performing complex motor skills.
Further, an individual with a high level of a component will recover more easily from training where that component is emphasized. For example, someone who is neuro-dominant will not recover well from high volume bodybuilding work; whereas someone who is muscle-dominant will not recover well from heavy work.
