Athletes spend countless hours physically training for their sport. The time and energy devoted to being successful in sport is apparent. The physical can be measured and evaluated, which for some athletes is what they need to measure progress.
Mental skills training is just as important as physical training for sport. Some athletes might struggle because it could be challenging to measure success. Others might feel it difficult because they don’t know where to start.
Any athlete, of any stage or experience level, can benefit from including mental skills training into their program! A main benefit is that by focusing on the mind, an athlete can begin to be more self-aware of their emotions and thoughts. As an athlete develops a stronger mindset, they will notice stronger regulation where they are not spending unnecessary energy on their emotions and instead staying focused on their performance success!
