Athletes of all ages and experience levels should be incorporating mental skills training PROACTIVELY, instead of waiting for an issue to arise!
Think of it being similar to prehabilitation exercises to prevent injury! Athletes spend time developing and training their body for performance, which is what should also be done with their mind!
Adding these mental skills as part of their program helps ENHANCE SELF-AWARENESS AND SELF-REGULATION, which helps athletes implement coping strategies proactively!
