The Mental Game: Getting Control of Your Mind for Top Performance

Today, we are going to look at the power of the mind in sport and take a good & hard look at the power of the mind and the area of Sport Psychology with John Stevenson from Zone Performance.

We have a very good grasp on skill and technical & tactical development. We know about strength & conditioning. If you want to get faster, jump higher, or be stronger, no problem! We can make that happen. We have a very good grasp on nutrition & hydration but I believe we are just on the frontier side of harnessing the power of the mind when it comes to human performance.

We’ll also look at the innovative programs that are using bio & neural feedback to help athletes get control and stay in control of their mindset and mental state and the performance out comes are incredible!!!

Later in the show, I run through the top priorities for athlete development.

If you are not on the right track here, you are going to have a very hard time reaching your potential but if you do it right getting really good at something is much easier than you would think.
