Mental Training
The best practice to enhance athletic performance in the field of sports psychology is through Mental Training. This training is the area of sports psychology that specifically focuses on helping athletes break down the mental barriers that prevent them from fulfilling their maximum potential. Many athletes and coaches resist mental training because they do not understand the ways in which it can help them. In order for athletes to make the most of their sport, their physical and tactical skills, it is important to understand the value of improving their mental potential.
Mental barriers include high expectations, perfectionism, fear of failure, lack of emotional control, limited attention span, stress management, low motivation. Psychological training is about improving the athlete’s attitude and mental skills to help them achieve optimal results, identifying restrictive beliefs and adopting a healthier philosophy for the sport. Mental skills, like physical skills, require repetition, practice, application, and feedback of behavior. We help athletes, coaches and teams to understand the mental barriers that limit performance. Athletes can overcome the various barriers arising from competitive pressure through intervention in their mental game, which aims to enhance confidence, focus, composure, emotional resilience and mental preparation.
