Is Your Athlete Playing Safe or Just Appear Lazy?

In this episode, Dr. Cohn answers a question from a reader about an athlete going backwards deispite many lessons. Why would athletes go backwards? Here's the question of the week: RICK: "My daughter is a 16-year-old softball pitcher & volleyball. Despite many lessons, she has gone backwards with her pitching. She cannot get out of an inning...she either walks the batter or hits the batter in the foot. I think she gets overly anxious and has lost her confidence. She is a little timid at times and seems afraid of making mistakes. How can she improve?" Peak Performance Sports, LLC helps athletes and performers improve mental skills for success in sports.

It often each to throw bull pens, but in game situations is when the yips can show up. Here is the question I received: DEREK: "I pitch and have the yips. When I throw batting practice or pitch with just a catcher, it’s okay. As soon as a batter enters the batter’s box, I start to YIP.  Game situations or batters in a simulated situation are problems. Why does the yips get worse in a game situation?" Peak Performance Sports, LLC helps athletes and performers improve mental skills for success in sports.
