Hello: I love the train my brain exercises — I have noticed that when doing the I-Memory game (using level 7)
some days I start out strong and after doing quite a few games I don’t do as well – almost a tired feeling.
How should we be progressing on this game? Is this normal?

Everyone’s mental stamina level is different, so pace yourself. Start out playing what is fairly easy amount for you to do without mental fatigue for a week or two. Then slowly add an additional game to work up mental stamina. You might notice if certain times of day work better for you, or if there is any link to your ability to do better in certain other conditions (eating specific foods, drinking water, stress level, etc.).
And be sure in addition to playing the games, you are following the nutrition, hydration, supplement, exercise, and sleep protocols outlined here as they will directly impact your brain’s fitness. Best to you! -Coach Zoe
Hi Coach Zoe- Thank you for the answer and I am trying very hard to follow the program. I am 66 years young (as they say) I still work and take care of my 90 year old Mom, she has dementia. With that said, my question is there a normal range that a brain gets fatigued? Is this something I should worry about? My sleep is less than desired and I am trying to use the restful sleep and I find taking only one gets me more sleep but taking more than that I feel “slow and down” the next day. I know it changes from day to day so I understand how everything plays in!
Thank you again!

There is a “normal” for each of us, and an “optimal” as well! If you feel your mental energy is waning from what once was, then hone in on what may be helpful for you to increase your stamina. Sleep is an essential piece, so keeping on top of that is key. Make sure you are drinking plenty of water during the day, which can really help to keep energy up, and be sure you are having enough time for relaxation and replenishing your energy stores, however that works for you. -Coach Zoe
