ADHD in sports is one of the most misunderstood topics today. Is it a hidden superpower that gives athletes enhanced awareness and hyperfocus, or does it quietly destroy performance, vision, and consistency?

In this special episode of the NeuroVision Edge Podcast, we bring in two expert guests who live and work with ADHD in both clinical and real athletic settings:

• Dr. Seth Fallon, PAC
Board Certified Physician Assistant at Area Community Health Centers serving Avanel, Hanford, and Riverdale. He is a former athlete, a premed biology graduate from Reinhardt University, and brings firsthand experience managing ADHD in performance environments.

• Dr. VJ Krishna, MD
Family Medicine and Obesity Management specialist practicing in Hanford, California and two other locations. A graduate of St. George University School of Medicine, he brings a medical, neurological, and personal perspective on ADHD and its impact on lifelong performance.

Together with Dr. Shah, all three providers discuss how ADHD affects sport performance from the inside out. They break down the neuroscience, the real athlete struggles, the hidden advantages, and the exact mental skills needed to rewire the ADHD brain for elite level results.

You will learn:
• Why athletes with ADHD process vision, timing, and movement differently
• Whether ADHD is truly a superpower or a serious hindrance
• How hyperfocus can make athletes dangerous on the field
• Why ADHD often affects eye muscle control, depth perception, and tracking
• Why many ADHD athletes struggle with flow state and how to fix it
• How pattern recognition and anticipation separate good from elite
• What parents and coaches must understand about ADHD development
• The speculation around Kobe Bryant and ADHD medication
• The mental rewiring techniques that turn distraction into domination

This episode is packed with science, real stories, and high level performance insights every athlete and parent needs to hear.
