Victory and Defeat

What happens when we succeed? How does our body behave? How does our brain process and “save” this new input? What about defeat? How does our body react to it? And our brain? One cannot exist without the other – this shows us the intimate relationship between both of these experiences

External and internal factors may not only alter the perception for victory and/or defeat, they are the most important and influential networks running the victory/defeat regulation system. In competitive sports there can only be one winner! Or at least that is what I was always told to believe. After many years participating in competitive sports, this simple rule expanded in itself to different versions.
