Thread: Exercising while sleeping?

I wouldn't suggest maths, you'll probably fail in the dream but think you did well until you wake up. As for instruments, while people say its possible, I doubt that my mind could perfectly replicate a piano keyboard and accurate tone for each key, so I wouldn't expect that is possible either. People like to say "anything is possible in a dream" but frankly you should understand your limits.

It is indeed possible to create or refine muscle-memory in dreams, but I think something like math is too complex to be faithfully reproduced in the dream world, unless you live and breathe it.

True, but I don't mean to play music. I just want to do exercices, train speed and coordination (muscle memory, I guess).
I agree that it would be pretty hard to accurate each note, and probably if you played the same note twice, it would sound different. Unless you have an absolute pitch.

Yeah, we can't even read clearly in dreams, I guess do maths is ask too much.
