MENTAL PERFORMANCE TRAINING

Mental Performance Training can help if you:

• Perform inconsistently in competition
• Lose self-confidence
• Become distracted easily
• Get upset easily after mistakes
• Feel tight or anxious in competition
• Can’t have fun or enjoy sports
• Can’t take your skills to competition
• Perform “safe” or tentatively
• Have a fear of making mistakes
• Worry too much about what others think

If you or your team is struggling with any of these challenges, you will benefit from mental performance training. mental performance training helps athletes, coaches, and teams develop actionable skills to build confidence, improve self esteem, increase focus, and withstand adversity during athletic performance.

Every athlete or coach has a different and unique journey while developing mental performance skills because not all individuals experience the same performance barriers. Results also vary based on the individual’s desire to improve their mental performance skills, their ability to apply mental performance skills in competition, and their willingness to overcome mental barriers in the way of successful performance.

In short, it varies. Every athlete or coach has a unique and different timeline when it comes to skill development. Just like it takes a few months to see results in the gym, it also takes time to develop mental performance skills. Moreover, it depends on the desire to improve, the ability to apply mental performance skills, and a willingness to recognize and work through challenges! Mental performance skills should be trained in parallel with athletic performance to ensure ongoing development.
