Why Pro Gamers Are Fixing Their Setup First

Why does your setup feel “fine”… but your performance still plateaus?

In this episode of The Performance Academy by Neuroptima, we’re joined by Dr. Jonathan Chung — board-certified chiropractor, NASM Certified Personal Trainer, Corrective Exercise Specialist, and esports performance expert — to break down Performance Ergonomics and why your environment might be quietly holding you back.

Ergonomics isn’t just about avoiding pain. It’s about designing a setup that supports focus, efficiency, and long-term performance — whether you’re a casual gamer or a pro.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

Why ergonomics is a performance lever, not just a pain fix

Common setup inefficiencies that drain focus and consistency

How to tailor your setup to your body, not generic guidelines

How small adjustments compound into better sessions over time

Why meeting players where they are leads to sustainable improvement
