Eli5; Why is it said that it is very difficult to change your IQ to a higher score?

Surely by training our brains it becomes more effective at seeing patterns and working faster?

Whomever is saying that is blatantly incorrect. It is in fact almost *inevitable* that your IQ score will change as time goes by, since the IQ test is meant to measure a person's (very specific) academic potential *compared to other people of the same age/background*. That is **not** something that remains static!
